3D Model rendering performance

Model size/complexity and rendering quality settings can both have an impact on rendering performance, particularly for client machines with no dedicated GPU.

The Render Quality setting in the viewer can be used to improve balance quality with performance as required.

By default, the viewer sets the rendering quality to Medium. On client machines with dedicated GPU this setting can be increased for more detailed rendering without adversely impacting performance.

On machines with only integrated graphics, it may be necessary to reduce rendering quality to Low or Very Low to maintain performance.

  • IPad Support for 3D Hardware

  • Chip: The M series chip is required to render the 3D models.
