Uploading to View
View is a web-based model-sharing platform that allows you to visualise 3D models and share them with collaborators, all in one online view. This topic describes:
Signing in to View
Signing in to My Leapfrog via the User Identity menu also signs you in to View.
To enable uploading to View, click on the Leapfrog Geothermal menu and then on Settings > User Interface. Tick the box for Show View upload. The View button (
) will be displayed in the Scene View toolbar.
Uploading to View
There are two options for uploading to View:
- Uploading the current 3D view
- Uploading saved scenes
Uploading the 3D View
The first option for uploading to View is to upload some or all of the objects in the 3D scene. To do this, click the View button () in the toolbar:
A list of the objects currently in the scene is displayed, along with information about the upload size for each object. Objects that are visible in the scene will automatically be selected, whereas any hidden objects will appear in the list but will not be selected.
If an object in the scene does not appear in the list, it is because the upload of that type of object to View is not supported at this time.
The maximum number of objects and the maximum amount of data that can be uploaded are displayed in the window, so if your scene contains large objects or too many objects, you can select which ones you wish to upload.
When uploading category data columns to View, there is a limit to how many unique codes can be uploaded. If your category data is displaying more than 250 unique codes, consider simplifying your data before uploading to View.
Once you have chosen which objects you want to upload and entered information about the view, click the Upload button.
Upload progress is shown in the processing queue:
When the upload is complete, a message will be shown in the bottom right-hand corner of the Leapfrog Geothermal window, along with a link to view the uploaded file.
Uploading Saved Scenes
To upload one of the scenes in the Saved Scenes and Movies folder, right-click on the scene and select Upload to View. The process is the same as described in Uploading the 3D View above.
Troubleshooting Connectivity Issues
Leapfrog Start checks to see if your network will support the connection of Leapfrog web-based services to your desktop applications. If you are having trouble with your connection to View, see Checking Connectivity with Leapfrog Start.
