+
−
 
+
−

+
−
 
+
−

+
−
 
+
−
* ''Formal Requirement.''  The 3D visualisation format may be used across the whole extended enterprise, throughout the supply chain, without restriction to a particular functional area

−
 
+
−
* ''Survey Description.''  (same)
+
−
 
+
−

+
−
 
+
−
* ''Formal Requirement.''  Display 3-D representation of parts and assemblies independent of any CAx or PDM system. Any data within the scope of ISO 10303-1231 and 10303-1230 may have a viewable representation of Geometry, Attributes, Viewing parameters, and Management and other information.
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Survey Description.''  Format is able to store the data which is the 3-D representation of parts and assemblies independent of any CAx or PDM system.  Any data within the scope of ISO 10303-1231 and 10303-1230 may have a viewable representation of Geometry, Attributes, Viewing parameters, and Management and other information.

+
−
 
+
−

+
−

−
== Requirement 5: Display selection & editing ==
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Formal Requirement.''  Any graphically selected element should be highlighted. All selected part or assembly from the assembly tree should be highlighted.  The user should have the ability to, temporarily, turn on and off the display of selected elements (point, line, surface, solid annotation, mark-up, etc.) The user should have the ability to, temporarily, change the visual attributes of part(s) (e.g., turn parts on and off, change colour, make transparent) by selecting them from the assembly tree. The user should have the ability to select and display parts and assemblies sorted out by layers, colours, materials, dates, and other numerical or textual attributes
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Survey Description.''  The Format supports storage of data or constructs which enable the following activities in an implementing system
+
−
 
+
−
- Any graphically selected element should able to be highlighted.
+
−
- All selected part or assembly from the assembly tree should be able to be highlighted
+
−
- Support for the ability to temporarily, turn on and off the display of selected elements (point, line, surface, solid annotation, mark-up, etc.
+
−
- Support for the ability to temporarily, change the visual attributes of part(s) i.e. turn parts on and off, change color, make transparent) by selecting them from the assembly tree.
+
−
- Support for the ability to select and display parts and assemblies sorted out by layers, colors, materials, dates, and other numerical or textual attributes
+
−
 
+
−
* ''X3D response.''
+
−
** X3D specification is capable of containing model information for all these capabilities
+
−
** Authors and tools can create model-specific animations that provide these capabilities to end users
+
−
** Generic implementation for any arbitrary model is also possible but remains application dependent
+
−
 
+
−
== Requirement 6: Print/Plot ==
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Formal Requirement.''  Print and/or plot the information displayed on the screen. Users should be able to specify a scale to plot the image relative to native model boundaries, i.e., displayed images should be plotted at full scale, ½ scale, etc.
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Survey Description.''  There are no restrictions in the format specification which prohibit the ability to print and/or plot the information displayed on the screen.  No restrictions on the ability to scale and plot the data which represents the image relative to native model boundaries,  i.e., displayed images could be plotted at full scale, ½ scale, etc by an implementing system.
+
−
 
+
−
* ''X3D response.''  Applications can provide full support based on the information available in an X3D model.
+
−
** Authors can use either perspective-based Viewpoint or orthographic OrthoVIewpoint to create model-specific animations
+
−
 
+
−
== Requirement 7: Zoom/Pan ==
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Formal Requirement.''  Zoom/Pan into a local area of a 3D image without losing visual accuracy.
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Survey Description.''  Data format does not restrict an implementing system from providing Zoom/Pan into a local area of a 3D image without losing visual accuracy.
+
−
 
+
−
* ''X3D response.''
+
−
 
+
−
== Requirement 8: Camera Rotation ==
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Formal Requirement.''  Rotate the camera viewing perspective about a point either by an arbitrary or a specific axis. Rotation can occur either as a function of mouse/key input or by keying in exact angles.  This is necessary in order to orient the parts relative to critical views for detailed analysis.
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Survey Description.''  Format provides content definition which enables implementing systems to rotate the camera viewing perspective about a point either by an arbitrary or a specific axis.
+
−
 
+
−
* ''X3D response.''
+
−
 
+
−
== Requirement 9: Bill of Material (BOM) ==
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Formal Requirement.''  A selectable representation of the product structure (assembly Bill of Materials) should be displayed.
+
−
The product structure should be evident and individual parts and assemblies should be able to be displayed/highlighted by selecting from the product structure.
+
−
The product structure representation shall be associated to the geometry representation, i.e. there is a bi-directional link between a part reference in the product tree and the corresponding part geometry.
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Survey Description.''  The format provides data constructs such that an implementing system can define a selectable representation of the product structure (assembly Bill of Materials)
+
−
The product structure should be evident and individual parts and assemblies should be able to be displayed/highlighted by selecting from the product structure.
+
−
The ability to support a bi-directional link between a part reference in an implementations product tree and the corresponding part geometry.
+
−
 
+
−

+
−
 
+
−
* ''Survey Description.''  An implementing system will be able to capture a displayed image of the data stored in the format and save it as another file type.
+
−
 
+
−
* ''X3D response.''
+
−
 
+
−
== Requirement 11: Measurement ==
+
−
 
+
−
* ''Formal Requirement.''  Basic measurement capability would include the ability to get arbitrary point-to-point measurements.
+
−
Additional required functionality would include measurements relative to features such as Vertices (end of line), Lines (edge), Surfaces (face), and Parts.
+
−
Advanced measurement includes distance along a curve or surface. The visualisation tool should provide the capability to retrieve as much relevant information as possible, i.e., location, angle, size, area, volume, mass, etc.
+
−
All measurements should be exact to model tolerance. The tool should measure in the unit of the native data.
+
−
 
+
−

Revision as of 17:46, 13 January 2009

The Extensible 3D (X3D) Graphics standard has many capabilities. X3D components are modular collections of nodes that make it easier for software to gradually implement the full range of X3D capabilities.

Authors can also indicate what components are needed in an X3D scene in order to ensure that proper support is provided at run time.

This table records support for the official X3D components by each of the various X3D players. It is maintained by the X3D Working Group and member companies in the Web3D Consortium.

The X3D Resources page provides lots of additional information about X3D. Please Contact Web3D if you want to learn more or report an update.
