3D Viewer
The 3D viewer lets you explore your architectural models in an interactive 3D environment.
Navigation
- Rotate — Click and drag to orbit around the model
- Pan — Right-click and drag, or hold Shift + click and drag
- Zoom — Scroll wheel to zoom in and out
Saved Views
Save your favorite camera positions so you can jump back to them later:
- Position the camera where you want
- Click Save View
- Give it a name (e.g., "Front Façade", "Interior Living Room")
- Click the view name anytime to return to that exact camera angle
This is especially useful for presentations or when you want to quickly compare different angles.
Split Panels
The viewer has resizable split panels. You can use:
- 3D View — Your main model view
- 2D Canvas — A drawing canvas alongside the 3D view for sketching or annotating
- Flow Editor — A node-based editor for project planning
Drag the dividers to resize the panels to your preference.
