Question

Statement: I have a 3D model ready in Google SketchUp Pro.

Problem Statement:

  1. I need to display the model in a webpage.
  2. I need the model to be browsable (The user can navigate his way through it like on Google Earth)
  3. I need the model to be update-able (If I update something in SketchUp, I should be able to easily port changes till the webpage)

Question: How can this be done?

Note: I figured out VRML could be an option, but I was unable to get that idea up and running.

Was it helpful?

Solution

Have you investigated the Sketchup Web Exporter plugin (still in beta at time of writing)?

If that doesn't do exactly what you're after, you can write a plugin yourself using the Sketchup API, allowing you to write plugins in Ruby or C++.

OTHER TIPS

You can now use SketchUp in the browser, and it should be able to read anything coming from SketchUp Pro. Check out https://my.sketchup.com
