Introduction

SAP 3D Visual Enterprise Viewer Dashboards 4 Add-On v2.0 is an add-on for SAP Dashboards 4.1 that contains a 3D Viewer2 component. The 3D Viewer2 component provides 3D model viewing and 3D analytics capabilities using SAP 3D Visual Enterprise Viewer.

The 3D Viewer2 component allows 3D models to be displayed in HTML output produced by exporting to HTML (with Flash). Dashboards allow exporting to various types of output file, but exporting to HTML is the only option that works when a 3D Viewer2 component is used in a dashboard.

The 3D Viewer2 component must run inside an HTML page in order to allow an ActiveX control to be used in a Dashboards application implemented in Adobe Flex.

Note that 3D Viewer2 components do not work in the Dashboards preview.

You can use the 3D Viewer2 component to do the following:

• Visual Indexing

  Selecting objects in a 3D scene in order to view or use business data related to the selected objects

• Painting

  Modifying the appearance of objects in a 3D scene using a set of rules that are applied to business data associated with the objects in the scene

• Model Views

  Selecting views embedded in 3D models in order to select a particular scene

• Steps

  Playing step animations embedded in 3D models

• Queries

  Running SAP 3D Visual Enterprise queries against the loaded 3D models
