Exporting in VRML Format

VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is a language used for describing more or less elaborate scenes that include realistic 3D objects and displaying them on your Internet browser’s screen thanks to specialized software (browser) to browse them in real-time as required and study them from any angle as if you were actually present there.

VRML files have WRL extension; you will require a browser to load and view these files. Contact your information center to know about the downloadable products compatible with your work environment.

To create VRML file, the system should create a temporary GSR file from the current model.

This dialog box includes various parts:

The name of the file to be created is specified in this part: Click on Browse… and specify the name and location of the VRML file.
