Markup Toolbars

1 min read

Clicking the Markup button on the collapsed 3DV toolbar launches the markup mode and either shows or hides the Basic Markup toolbar, which includes the following buttons:

  1. Scribble shows or hides buttons on the toolbar for drawing arbitrary lines on a given 3D CAD model; see the Drawing on CAD Models section.
  2. Highlight shows or hides buttons on the toolbar for drawing rectangular areas on a given 3D CAD model; see the Highlighting Areas on CAD Models section.
  3. Label shows or hides buttons on the toolbar for adding labels to a given 3D CAD model; see the Putting Labels on CAD Models section.
  4. Delete removes selected markup items from a given 3D CAD model; see the Deleting Markups on CAD Models section.

  5. Switch To Standard Toolbar hides the Basic Markup toolbar and shows the Standard Markup toolbar.

    The Standard Markup toolbar is fixed to the upper left corner of the 3D scene view: it cannot be moved through the 3D scene like the Basic Markup toolbar. The Standard Markup toolbar includes the same buttons as on the Basic Markup toolbar with the exception of the Switch To Standard Toolbar button (5)—the Switch To Basic Toolbar button appears instead (9)—and the following additional buttons:

  1. Select selects markups on a given 3D CAD model.
  2. Download File downloads a JPG image of a given markup.
  3. Print uses the standard browser print function for markups. Depending on a given browser and its specific configuration, various print choices, such as printing on a printer or saving to PDF, are available.

  4. Switch to Basic Toolbar hides the Standard Markup toolbar and shows the Basic Markup toolbar.

    Unlike the Basic Markup toolbar, the Standard Markup toolbar is dynamic. The Standard Markup toolbar does not show or hide an additional toolbar containing functionality for a markup feature selected with the Scribble (1), Highlight (2), or Label (3) button. It displays the functionality of a selected markup feature. A selected feature and functionality options are enclosed by blue boxes. To hide the functionality options, click the selected feature.
