Lightweight CAD data format - let go of your design ideas (5)

He added that the new features will initially be limited to 2D browsing. And because the proposal is under Microsoft's .NET 3.0 Framework, this feature can be automatically upgraded to Windows XP or Windows 2000 via Windows Update.

XAML is a type of code for user interface development in the Windows Presentation Foundation of .NET. Currently XAML still has potential on the PLM stage. According to Floyd, Microsoft's Independent Software Vendor (ISV) partners can use XAML to develop new 3D user interfaces to better suit the Vista environment without additional software installation. CAD vendors, such as SolidWorkers, have begun experimenting with XAML-based 3D presentations.

Floyd said that despite this, XAML is still new and it is difficult to replace the proven 3D visualization format and software tools from PLM vendors.

He said: "The advice we give our partners is that if you are going to develop a 3D user interface, then XAML is exactly the technology you need. But if you are trying to solve a PLM collaboration problem, this is a New technologies require ISV experts to reflect their value."

Lightweight CAD data format overview

What is data format technology? Data format technology refers to compressing large 3D CAD files into smaller files and browsing them through common browser software.

How to use—Some PLM vendors embed a browser in a web-based collaborative design conferencing application to make it easy for everyone attending the meeting to browse together. These browsers can support multiple 3D formats and can be used independently. The main purpose of other vendors to introduce lightweight visualization products is to broaden the scope of collaborative design, which adds information security features such as workflow and browsing rights; some vendors such as Cimmetry offer browsers that support multiple CADs. It does not provide proprietary CAD software itself; there are also vendors such as CoCreate that offer collaborative design software that leverages data adapters and data conversion technologies to support multiple CAD software.

The main products—including Autodesk's DWF format, UGS's JT format, U3D format used by Adobe Systems, SolidWorks' eDrawings format, Dassault's 3DXML format, PTC's ProductView, and Actify's .3D format.
