  • Tool for viewing 3D objects in 3D models
    Patent number: 11367249
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program executable by at least one processing unit of a device. The program provides a display area for viewing a 3D model that includes a plurality of three-dimensional (3D) objects. The program further provides a tool for viewing 3D objects in the 3D model. The program also determines a 3D object in the plurality of 3D objects in the 3D model to hide. The program further hides the determined 3D object in the 3D model.
    Type: Grant

  • Automated derivative view rendering system
    Patent number: 8612040
    Abstract: A system and method for creating a derivative view from graphical data which is derived from native application data. The native application data may be extracted from a graphical application, such as a CAD application, converted to an intermediate or derivative format, and a derivative view of the graphic information produced by the original, native application is provided from the intermediate format.
