      Hello all,

      Is there an easy way i can show a SU model either on teams or send a link to someone such as a manager who can look at a 3D model without SU.

      Im finding when i rough out a construction project i like to present it in meetings usually on teams but the upload speed is so slow that the model just becomes very clunky and i can show the model how i want.

      Is there any hacks that can be used or webpages that the model can be added and i can send a link?

      thanks

        Are you finding screen sharing on Teams is slow? Or is the model slow as you are navigating around?

        Which version of SketchUp are you using? Please complete your forum profile. If you have a current subscription you could upload the file to your Trimble Connect account and send them the link so they can look at the model in the online viewer. A little more difficult to direct them to see what you want them to see since each person will be navigating on their own.

          as Dave was asking + is your internet speed fast enough to handle video streams? i routinely share the walkthrough with clients - the SU model is on my machine and they're viewing my screen as i manipulate it. this allows me to show the main model(s) as well as smaller ones if needed without anyone needing anything other than the meeting app - Teams, Google Meet, Zoom, etc. if you're uploading the model to each person on the call, that would seem to be inefficient as well as creating dependencies on people installing the SU viewer app or if you shared obj or other 3D model type, something that is less likely to represent your work.

            If uploading to Trimble Connect and sharing the link, the other people won't have to install the viewer to look at the file. They'll be looking at it in the online viewer.

              Hi Dave,

              im using 2022 pro sketch on a windows Dell platform. The model its self is fine, iv have now learned to keep the models small so i have no problem with using the model myself.

              When im on teams the other end say the model just freezes and then catches up its just very slow. but its not slow my end?

              Very annoying as i can bring alot of people together over teams and the models help all with my projects with decision making etc.

                That's good.

                I think that's going to be your connection or Teams, not SketchUp. Are you initiating the meeting? I used to run into sluggishness with GoToMeeting if I initiate the meeting but make someone else the presenter so they can share their screen.

                Understood. You might look at some other option for screensharing.
