Drop & View

A browser-based 3D model viewer

About

Drop & View is a small, browser-based viewer for inspecting 3D models without installing a desktop application. Drop a model onto the start screen, or choose it with the file picker, and explore it interactively.

System requirements

Drop & View runs in a modern browser with JavaScript and WebGL support. No account or server-side upload is required.

Web app

How to use

  1. Drop an .fbx, .gltf or .glb file onto the start screen, or choose Open File.
  2. Drag to orbit around the model and scroll or pinch to zoom.
  3. Switch between perspective and axonometric views.
  4. Use the style controls to inspect the original, white, hidden-line, wireframe or black-and-white view.
  5. Open Controls to adjust the light, shadows and section plane.

Sections and inspection

The section tool reveals the inside of a model along the X, Y or Z axis. You can move or flip the section plane, choose a cut colour and turn section filling on or off.

The Controls panel also shows basic model statistics, including the loaded model's structure and geometry information.

Privacy

Drop & View processes the selected model in your browser. The app does not require an account and does not upload your model to a developer-operated server.

Three.js is loaded from jsDelivr to provide the 3D viewer. The browser may request that library from the network when the app starts.

Support

Questions, suggestions and feedback are always welcome.
