This article will cover how to upload 3D design models, including allowable build-types, upload requirements, and how to access & view them after uploading.
3D can be viewed any parcel with varying transparencies, angles & attributes. 3D can be applied to all build types, including: Houses, Duplexes, Granny Flats/ADUs, Pools & Sheds.
- The 3D model should be in '.glb' format.
- The size of the model should be less than or equal to 25 MB.
- To access the Admin section Click on your initials on the top right corner of the screen.
- Select Admin from the dropdown menu.
- Click Design Catalogues.
Users can add a 3D model to any design that is in the Design Catalogue.
-
Click the Three Dots to the right of the design price.
- Click the Placement Image.
- Click on the 3D Model tab.
-
