Hi Neil, Not that I would like to make you spend money without any reason ;) But one of the things I like about the VRML export is that I can walk around my city in realtime. This makes it much easier to find good viewpoints/compositions. I know there's a walkthrough option in RS, but I don't find it very responsive in more complex scenes. In the VRML scene it's more like in real life when you walk around with your camera to catch nice pictures. Whenever you decide to buy the plugin, let me know. I've got some useful tips to optimize the exported files (in many cases I can reduce a 80K export file to 10K)

That's what I needed to know. I'm not certain that I will need to get up to speed with VRML at this stage. I think anim walk/fly throughs will probably be all that will be required or maybe with viewing option links through HTML.

About two days before the release of SP3 I got a new beta fixing a severe VRML bug. But that update had the same version number. I've no problems with VRML or Realsoft at this moment, with the .dll installed. But maybe that's because I've got a registered VRML plugin. Maybe the bug only shows up with the uregistered dll. I guess Vesa or Juha will know the answer. If you want to use Realsoft to create VRML you'll need the registered plugin.

First question - Is the plugin necessary for VRML work? I will go back over the work that Arjo did a while back but a short answer would be useful. Second question concerns giving dimensions to a plan or elevation in ortho view of RS objects in a project .... is there a short cut to this? Even if only vertical or horizontal dimensions could be drawn in with a snap/click or something I would like to know. Thanks Neil Cooke
