Product viewer |
|
|
The product viewer provides an animated simulation of a product being taken off a shelf, inspected and put back. It is a quick and convenient way to get a close-up look at a product. |
|
|
|
 |
Select the product you would like to view and press the product viewer icon located on the right hand side of the object manipulation toolbar or press the 'p' key.
An animation will start, the selected product will leave the shelf and move to the middle of the aisle. You can now inspect it from all sides.
Position the mouse pointer over the product and click the left mouse button. Moving the mouse while holding the mouse button will rotate the product. When you are done press the 'p' key again. The product will then return to its original position on shelf.
Note: The product viewer can be used on single objects, groups or arrays. |

Sometimes you might want to share your projects with colleagues or clients that do not have Store Visualizer installed on their computer. While you could take screenshots or generate a report as described above, it is often more effective to let them explore the project the same way that you designed it in Store Visualizer - interactively and in real time.
With only a few mouse clicks, you can use Store Visualizer to generate a viewer file from your project. This small executable file can easily be copied, sent by email or put onto a website. By simply double clicking it, your clients will be able to view a realtime 360° representation of your project at the point you selected. |

Right click on the Store Visualizer render area to open the main contextual menu.
Select: File > Export.
Enter the name of the viewer file you would like to export. The file type depends on your clients computer system. Windows viewers are executable files (.exe), Mac OS viewers are compressed application bundles (.zip). You can create Windows viewers even if you are running on a Mac and vice-versa.
Click on Save. The Spherical view exporter dialog appears. |

On the following screen, you will be able to add information about your project that your client will see when running the viewer. Note that all fields are optional, and you may leave them blank.
The exported viewer file is compressed, so to keep it small and easy to send over the internet. This compression can sometimes impact the visual quality of your project when the client views it. You can choose the amount of compression under compression quality. The higher the quality the larger the resulting viewer file will be.
Finally, after confirming with a click on export, select the location and name of the file you would like to generate. |

The system will generate a viewer file at your selected location. It can be run by simply double clicking it. The viewer will work on almost all computers and it requires no additional software to be installed prior to its use.
A short usage information screen appears. If you need more detailed information on how to use the viewer, please click the online help button.
After a click on start navigation, you will be viewing your project in real time.
Note: The project can not be modified in any way from within the viewer. |
