Okay, so we've looked at how we can view
and manipulate the Edrawings.
Let's take a look at how we can share
this information with other users.
So back into my Edrawings interface.
We have our foot assembly
from the file menu.
You can save the drawing
in numerous formats that we can share
with other people.
I guess we have the native Edrawing file,
which in this case is a EASM
Your Edrawings can exist in three formats
for parts, assemblies
and 2D Edrawings,
and they have their own files extension.
We can also compress these into a zip file
as well as a zip file
with an executable.
So the executable is the embedded viewer.
So this is a slightly larger zip file.
But it means
you only have to send it to someone once.
And they can install the Edrawings via
the executable.
You can also save in one of two HTML
formats, one which is activeX which.
Contains an embedded.
ActiveX frame, to run in your web
browser, and another using web HTML.
This is a new. Format
that's available in.
Edrawings Professional,
and we're going to get to that.
In the, in the last chapter.
We then got a number of,
Raster file types.
So bitmaps. TIFFs, JPEGs, PNGs and GIFs.
So lots of ways to share your.
Information from your Edrawings.
Okay.
So let's finish up looking at a couple
of features unique to Edrawings.
Professional.
First is the web HTML file format.
This format creates a single HTML file
that can be opened on any modern.
Browser on any device.
We've got the same viewing capabilities
as we had
in the original Edrawings application.
So we have a home button
to reset the view.
You can automatically animate
through the views.
You can zoom to fit.
You can change the display style,
including ambient occlusion
and perspective modes, changing the view
through standard orientations
as well as any shading display styles.
We've also got access to the components
lists.
This is an assembly file,
so you can see the structure here.
Any configurations
that might be available.
Any exploded sequences using a simple.
Slide and drag bar.
We can, explode the assembly out.
We have a sectioning tool that works
very similarly to the full application,
where we can drag back and forth.
We can change.
Cutting plans and.
Orientations include capping or not.
You've got a measure tool.
This is very handy.
So we could come in
and we can measure between anything.
We can select points and edges
and faces for example.
And we've also got a manual move.
Command where we can start
dragging the parts around on the screen
to explore the assembly in more. Detail.
So using the HTML mode with the Edrawings
is a.
Great way of sharing data
that allows people to view the files.
Without having to install. Any software.
And this will run on any device
with a modern web browser.
For a more immersive experience
for your designs.
Edrawings professional also provides
a seamless path to virtual reality.
Simply open the SOLIDWORKS assembly in VR.
Adjust scene settings
such as floor and sky.
Put on your headset and jump
into your design using the controller.
You can teleport from one location
to another at the click of a button.
This makes navigating for your design.
Easy and fast.
You can virtually climb
stairs, view sightlines, and look over
platform edges to feel what it's like.
To be inside your design.
You can grab objects
with another controller.
Click. You can view component metadata.
Use a pick and place method to disassemble
or simply release to.
Put them back.
So we've seen how
drones is an incredibly versatile tool
for viewing and interacting with CAD data.
Please take some time to further
explore the functions I've discussed here.
I'm sure you'll see the benefits.
Thanks for watching.
