Supported by ArchiCAD 11 and 12, it lets even a manager fluidly navigate through a 3D model in ArchiCAD.<BR /> <BR /> You can run ArchiCAD in demo mode without a license to view the model, and can even set up a Work Environment that turns all of the tools, toolbars, etc off for your boss - giving him just Navigator to select predefined starting views.<BR /> <BR /> I showed several non-ArchiCAD project managers how to view a model with a SpaceNavigator in minutes this year.<BR /> <BR /> Personally, I prefer 'object' mode, where moving your hand on the navigator is like holding a physical model - tilt it away and the model on the screen tilts away, etc. Out of 40 or so people that I've had try the device this year, only one preferred 'camera mode', which is more like flying in a video game.<BR /> <BR /> More comments from others (and me) here:<BR /> <BR /> <A href="http://www.amazon.com/3Dconnexion-SpaceNavigator-3D-Navigation-3DX-700028/dp/B000LB7G00/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8" target="_blank"><LINK_TEXT text="http://www.amazon.com/3Dconnexion-Space ... _2?ie=UTF8">http://www.amazon.com/3Dconnexion-SpaceNavigator-3D-Navigation-3DX-700028/dp/B000LB7G00/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8</LINK_TEXT></A><BR /> <BR /> Karl Sat, 20 Dec 2008 03:47:45 GMT Karl Ottenstein 2008-12-20T03:47:45Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Visualization/1-OpenGL-viewer/m-p/142945#M13026 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>hello<BR /> <BR /> my boss liked the way openGL shows models. when he wants to show it to clients - It is a bit "not direct" and maybe complicated (he is not controlling archicad well...)<BR /> is there some kind of viewer that takes a model and "client-aware" ?<BR /> <BR /> thanks</T></DIV> Thu, 11 May 2023 13:55:04 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Visualization/1-OpenGL-viewer/m-p/142945#M13026 Anonymous 2023-05-11T13:55:04Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Visualization/1-OpenGL-viewer/m-p/142946#M13027 I suggest that he/you invest in a 3DConnexion SpaceNavigator.
