3D Objects 1 year 8 months ago #8488

sbscomp Topic Author Offline New Member Posts: 1 Thank you received: 0	Dear All, is there a way to add a 3D object, such as an obj file, to Xerte so the users can rotate it and view it from many angles. Note this is the opposite of a 360 view where you are "inside" the view. I'd really like JSmol, but would settle for an obj file or gltf. If there isn't a way can anyone recommend an online viewer I can upload the file to and then embed into Xerte? David

Hi
we used to have a JMOL page but was deprecated due to security issues with the JMOL library.
If you have a safe JS option that you can use then you could link/include that code via the scrip icon. There is a demo of something similar in our Bootstrap demonstrator xot.xerte.org.uk/play_137#page8 under 3D graphics where the example is embedded from the threejs.org examples but with the code included could be local too.
