The model is opened locally on your browser, for sharing we’d have to upload it to a server. Not sure that’s something we have the infrastructure for. Same thing can be achieved by sharing a google drive or dropbox link maybe?
Can you clarify what you mean by model disappearing? A screen recording will be great.
This was my personal project, I think my credit card on file has expired. I can try to revive it if it’s useful.
Hi Morteza
I just tried review for the first time now.
And I also had my model simply vanishing.
I think it happened when I used the ZoomExtend.
I had one of the provided example file [ring] opened before [it didn’t disappear with the ZoomExtend] .
It’s great you are developing this.
Please would you try to keep it as simple and minimal as possible… the default.
With any fancy pro tools that may be added, packed into an Advance area.
So customers and other tech-shy people won’t be intimidated to view out work on this promising viewer .
thanks a lot
hi @mkarimi
Super thanks for looking into this!
Indeed this is how other online viewers do it. Grab the 3dm file from a cloud storage service.
Below, the screen recording with the model disappearing:
Looks like a camera near and far plane issues. I don’t think we’re setting those properly in rview
Unfortunately this project isn’t being actively worked on. But maybe that can change in the future
Well that’s too bad, it looks like it gathered some interest, almost 8k views.
Also, in my opinion, an online viewer will help make rhino even more popular, by sharing models with contractors, clients etc.
Does anyone know of a self-hosted open-source 3D viewer solution that supports 3dm or USDZ formats?
https://3dviewer.net is open source and supports 3dm, not sure about USDZ
here’s a cool one from this Swiss team:
You could import to Blender using @nathanletwory ’s 3DM plugin and share that file as a workaround.
Hey there,
We stumbled upon similar issues in our own projects and ended up building a simple web viewer for internal use. Since it proved useful, we thought we’d share it with the community as well.
It’s still in alpha, but supports layers, multiple display modes, measurements, fly-mode, and screenshots, with more features on the way…
Open to suggestions and feedback from the community!

Cheers,
Piotr
this is quite cool- thanks for sharing!
Hey again,
The viewer is now live at the link below:

We’ve added a worksession option, improved performance, and implemented several community-suggested updates.
Hi @Klushinsky
This is the most promising viewer I’ve found! Unfortunately all 3 models I opened (all under 100MB) did not display correctly. They all contain blocks and the blocks were randomly positioned and randomly orientated all over the viewer space.
I’m using Chrome on a Mac.
Am really interested to see where it goes!
Hi Alice, thanks for the feedback! Indeed, support for single blocks is already implemented. However, we’re currently experiencing an issue with the placement of nested blocks, which leads to the problems you’ve described. We’re aware of this and will be working to resolve it in the coming weeks. Thanks for your patience and interest—will keep you posted as improvements roll out!
