How to customize your settings when you share a Modelo design<\/h1>\n

Each time you decide you would like to use Modelo to generate a unique web link to share a 3D design with your colleagues and\/or clients, you have a number of settings available to help you customize what you share. From customizing the start screen to deciding whether to share all, some, or none of your comment cards and walkthroughs, Modelo makes it easy to craft what you share.<\/p>\n

For convenience, all of these settings are presented to you on the same pop-up screen where you enter the recipient\u2019s email address.\u00a0(To read an overview of the different ways to share your CAD and architectural designs, read this post<\/a>).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Start screen<\/strong>
\n<\/span>By default, anyone who visits the URL provided when you share your model will first see an overview of your project. However, you can modify this by selecting your \u2018current view\u2019, meaning that the view you were on immediately prior to deciding to share your design will be the first screen they see, or the \u2018first comment card\u2019. This latter option is useful if you want to encourage your recipient to review a specific piece of feedback on your model or start exploring your design at a prescribed location. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Show comment cards
\n<\/strong>Modelo makes it easy to conduct design reviews by giving you the tools to mark up, comment, and attach feedback all over your designs. All of this feedback is saved in a comment card and can be accessed on the right side of your screen. When you are ready to then share your model, you can elect to share all of your comments, only those that are ready to be reviewed by your client, or none of them. <\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>By sharing all of your comment cards, you can make internal design reviews much more seamless and transparent. However, when you want to share only a specific part of your design with your client or you want their feedback on specific parts of your design, mark the relevant comment card(s) as \u2018Client-ready\u2019 and select the option to share only \u2018client-ready\u2019 comment cards. Then, when you share your design, your client will only see what you want them to see. <\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Of course, if you do not want to share any comment cards, then simply select \u2018none\u2019 in the drop-down menu and only your design will be sent. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Show Walkthrough<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Walkthroughs<\/span><\/a> are an excellent way to highlight your design to clients and colleagues alike. Walkthroughs, sometimes called Flythroughs, allow you to control how your clients and colleagues experience your designs. You can choose to include the all of the walkthroughs you have created when you share your design. To do so, toggle the switch on or off (a green background will indicate that the toggle is \u2018on\u2019).<\/span><\/p>\n

Hide Comment Details
\n<\/strong>When sharing comment cards, you can stipulate whether you want to include details such as who authored the feedback and when it was created. By default, this option is turned off, but you can easily turning it on by toggling the switch to \u2018on\u2019 (to confirm this setting is enabled, you will see a green background in the toggle switch). The contents of the comment cards (including the feedback description and any attachments) will not be hidden if you select this option. <\/span><\/p>\n

Note: Hiding the details on the comment card will only apply when you have also decided to show all comment cards or comment cards that are client-ready. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Restricted View
\n<\/strong>If you would prefer to restrict what the recipients of your designs can see and how they can interact with your design, you should toggle the \u2018restricted view\u2019 to \u2018on\u2019 (to confirm this setting is enabled, you will see a green background in the toggle switch). When this setting is enabled, the following restrictions will apply:<\/span><\/p>\n
