Configure Newforma Konekt Web Viewer Options

If you enable this option and you select an object, you see the rest of the project going to the x-ray view type of mode. Enable the disable if you want to select multiple objects.

When you have placed a clipping box or a clipping plane on your project, objects being cut show in neon green.

Determines whether hidden elements and section boxes / clipping planes are kept when creating or updating a viewpoint.

Hides the elements that are faced away from the camera, allowing faster movement in the Web Viewer

Frustum culling is the process of removing objects that lie completely outside the viewing frustum from the rendering process. Enabling this option greatly improves the Web Viewer performance as all the elements outside of the view scope won’t be loaded in the memory.

This option is very handy for large projects that contains many IFC files. On a smaller project, it is not a necessity as the engine will manage to display all the elements without affecting the performance.

Progressive rendering is a rendering mode in which the program gradually updates elements of the entire model; refining it from the largest elements to the smaller ones rather than focusing on small elements at the beginning of the rendering process.

This option comes very handy for large projects that contains many IFC files. On a smaller project, it is not a necessity as the engine will manage to display all the elements at once.

Allows you to define which elements should be displayed first. This option is linked to progressive rendering.

We recommend prioritizing the elements linked to your work scope. So, if you’re are reviewing the mechanical parts of the project, it is best to prioritize mechanical categories. That way, the display of mechanical elements will be prioritized by the rendering engine.

Puts a thin black line around all the edges of your objects.

We recommend playing with that option to see how your model reacts to it turned on versus turned off.

Enables or disables the models associated to the disciplines stamp on the issue (see Manage model disciplines).

Hides elements that have been hidden during issue creation.

This option is commonly used when retrieving issues that were created either from the Create Issue or from the Views to Issues command.

Isolates related elements of an issue. Commonly used when retrieving issues that were created from the Clashes to Issues command with the Clash Detective.

Places a section a box around related elements. The section box will always automatically be turned on when retrieving issues with related elements.

Controls the offset of the section box around selected elements.

Snaps to closest edge. Hold Alt to ignore snap.

When placing measuring points on an object such as a wall, the node will want to snap to one of the face layers of the wall (int./ext. finish layer, structural framing layer, etc.) With the slider set to the max, you’ll notice that the node stays connected to the wall object and ignores the mouse pointer. With the slider set to the minimum, the measure point sticks to the tip of the mouse pointer.

Snaps to closest summit. Hold Alt to ignore snap.

The slider for the corner snap radius controls how strongly the measure point wants to snap directly to the corner of an object.

When working in close proximity of a large number of elements, a strong corner snap radius is recommended.

Enable this option when you want to sharpen details of the sheet. By default, this option is disabled to improve performance and loading time in the Web Viewer. When you add sheets or revisions, they will be converted to a lower quality version and will be available once the conversion is completed. Refresh your page to see if the conversion is completed.

Filters issues so that only issues on a particular 2D sheet are displayed. The issues must have been created on that sheet.
