      Visual fluff is last to be added.

      Priority #1 is making the .skp conversion cross platform and feature rich.

      We won't be beta testing this side of Xmas. Come the 15th it'll be shelved until new year.

      In its current pre-alpha state it's only being used by less than 10 people.

      And it's also running of a computer in our office.

      Something like this needs good infrastructure in place first. That costs $$$$.

        Fully understand.......I still would like to participate and much as you will allow... β˜€

        Their main concern, I think, was the amount of time/work it would take my to make the models available no necessarily the cost of the software/service (they pay me by the hour).

        Technically, I am retired but am listed as an employee for convenience πŸ˜‰

        I have a couple of other models you can test if you wish.....

                It's pretty fast (pretty and fast actually!) This last one from Tadao Ando is really cool!

                I don't like though:

                • the white gif on black background and uncentered when opening the model.
                • Rightclicking on the frame makes the object run away and pops up an error message about context menu not working.
                • Fullscreen is actually another window, wich is fine, but not being fullscreen is not that good.

                I'll say it again: It's pretty fast!

                Congratulations,

                JoΓ£o

                EDIT: What about an optional click me button while it's there, idle, waiting for someone to remember clicking on it. Maybe a gif that would flash after a certain time... some seconds, fast enough so that people don't go to another link or runaway from page.

                        Why total "vertical" rotation in all these sort of viewers are impossible ?
                        The total "horizontal" rotation is working like a charm! πŸ˜„

                          there is issue as camera passes over the Z axis.

                          so we prevent complete orbit.

                                        You imperialist/capitalist bastards! πŸ˜„

                                        Now does this mean that we'll have to always use this bought materials or can we somehow make them ourselves... maybe make the base skm and send them your way for finishing magic would also be nice?

                                        Now another issue: My lines are not antialiased but I might have messed my GPU settings for speed. Is this related to my system or is this being shown like this to everyone?

                                        And the final one:

                                        The fullscreen icon can be confused with zoom extents and the playback button means what exactly? Zoom extents? It feels it has a different behaviour everytime I try it, probably because I didn't yet understood what to expect.

                                        And the final final note:

                                        The new gif is more related to the rest, but could be the size of the other icons? maybe in the end of the menu, justified right, instead of the old center thing we're all so used to?

                                        And the final final final note:
                                        Black background doesn't look that good with that red icons.

                                        Otherwise I think it is rocking. Cornell box never looked nicer with that "fake" translucency!

                                        Keep it up!

                                          that's up for discussion/debate. the purpose is to make presenting your models as easy as possible. Paint in SU see magic in viewer. How it evolves afterwards is certainly dependant on its user base.

                                          there is a scaling issue we have yet to address for the viewer
