The "import of 3D drawings" refers to the process of loading and displaying 3D models, constructions, or designs from external files into a software. This allows users to import existing 3D models or designs into their working environment to further edit, analyze, or use as reference. Typically, 3D drawings are imported in formats such as STL, OBJ, STEP, IGES, or FBX.
Typical features of software in the "import of 3D drawings" area include:
Support for various file formats: Ability to import 3D models from a variety of file formats to ensure compatibility with different external sources.
Scaling and positioning: Features for scaling, rotating, and placing the imported 3D model within the software's workspace.
Material assignment: Ability to apply or modify materials and textures to the imported 3D model to customize its appearance and surface properties.
Preserve structure and assemblies: Ensuring that the imported 3D drawings retain their original structure, assemblies, and components for easy editing and analysis.
Preview and verification: Displaying a preview of the imported 3D model to ensure it was loaded correctly and does not have any errors that need to be addressed.
