Viewer Release Notes: v 6.3.*

Added

Autodesk.PDF extension

Prototype vector rendering loader for PDF files.

Sample code:

    Autodesk.Viewing.Initializer(options, function() {
        var viewer = new Autodesk.Viewing.Viewer3D(div,config3d);
        viewer.start()
        viewer.loadExtension('Autodesk.PDF').then(function() {
            // URL parameter `page` will override value passed to loadModel
            viewer.loadModel('path/to/file.pdf', { page: 1 });
        });
    });

Autodesk.DocumentBrowser extension

Toolbar button and panel for viewing all 2D and 3D models available in a JSON manifest.

Document Browser Extension

viewer.loadDocumentNode

New model loading API: viewer.loadDocumentNode(lmvDocument, bubbleNode, options)

loadOptions.skipHiddenFragments:bool to skip initially hidden meshes

Changed

Property Panel

Property Panel’s title will now display the name of the selected node.

Restore function Autodesk.Viewing.Private.getHtmlTemplate for compatibility.

Other:

• Default value for BlendShader’s AO opacity
• Default values for SAOShader’s radius and intensity.
• All documentation URLs referencing developer.autodesk.com are now referencing forge.developer.com
• Model loading UI will now be removed as soon as geometry is ready for rendering

Fixed

• SplitScreen: Fix pan speed in SplitScreen when using 3 or 4 viewports
• SplitScreen: Roll tool no longer jumps when dragging across viewports
• Missing Uint8Array.prototype.slice in IE11 while loading Leaflet PDFs
• Keep View Cube’s triad oriented correctly when top/front/etc. changes
• Incorrect selection color for wide lines
• Let avp.ENABLE_INLINE_WORKER be changed at run time
• viewer.clearSelection no longer fires an event when nothing is selected
• Issue in 6.1 and later where incompatible libraries caused 2D sheets to render black. URLs for dependencies are now set to load matching versions.
