Exploding view in ABViewer

Post by mcicognani » 24 Nov 2023, 13:20

Hi everybody,
I'm using ABViewer 14 and very satisfied of the product...

But I miss a nice feature I've seen in (few) other tools, like Wiskers'.
I'd like to have an 'exploding' view, maybe a slider that would explode the components of an assembly moving them away from the original location, just following a direction from a centre point...

This would be very useful for me to quickly identify hidden components in complex assemblies, like screws or small accessories... (I'm using this tool to prepare list of accessories for the assembly lane, and often take some screenshots as documentation for the operators).

Do you think it maybe possible to see something similar in a future release?

Thank you,

Max

Hi Max,
Thank you for your interest in ABViewer!
Indeed, ABViewer 14 doesn't have an Exploded View tool, but this feature is already available in ABViewer 15 –https://cadsofttools.com/company/news/a ... -released/! So, if you're a licensed user of ABViewer 14, you can upgrade your current license to ABViewer 15 at https://cadsofttools.com/products/abviewer/buy/. Also, as black friday is on, we offer 15% off your ABViewer order till November, 30.

Best wishes,
Catherine.
