    canvas: HTMLCanvasElement

    HTMLCanvasElement for the viewer used to operate on. Defined only while the viewer is initialized.

    canvasEvents: string[]

    List of canvas events, such as mouse events or pointer events or touch events that the viewer should listen and redirect to the draggers and components.

    By default, the following events are redirected:

    • click
    • contextmenu
    • dblclick
    • mousedown
    • mouseleave
    • mousemove
    • mouseup
    • pointercancel
    • pointerdown
    • pointerleave
    • pointermove
    • pointerup
    • touchcancel
    • touchend
    • touchmove
    • touchstart
    • wheel
    client: Client

    The Client instance that is used to load model reference files from the Open Cloud Server.

    components: string[]

    List of names of available components.

    draggers: string[]

    List of names of available draggers.

    The following draggers are available by default:

    • Pan
    • Orbit
    • Zoom
    • MeasureLine
    • CuttingPlaneXAxis
    • CuttingPlaneYAxis
    • CuttingPlaneZAxis
    • Walk

    For a quick reference on how to implement your own dragger, see IDragger.

      Returns void

    • Saves the viewer state at the viewpoint.

      To save a viewpoint to the server for a specific file, use the File.saveViewpoint().

      Returns IViewpoint

    • Unloads an open file, clears the canvas and markups, and releases resources allocated by this viewer instance. Call this method before release the Viewer instance.

      Returns this

    • Sets the viewer state to the specified viewpoint.

      To get a list of available viewpoints from the server for a specific file, use the File.getViewpoints().

      Parameters

      Returns void

    • Fires the event. Alias to emitEvent().

      Parameters

      • type: string | object

        The type of event that gets fired.

      • ...args: any[]

        The event properties.

      Returns boolean

    • Fires the event. Calls each of the listeners registered for the event type event.type, in the order they were registered.

      Parameters

      • event: IEvent

        The event that gets fired.

      Returns boolean

    • Executes the command denoted by the given command ID.

      Parameters

      • id: string

        ID of the command to execute.

      • ...args: any[]

        Parameters passed to the command handler function.

      Returns any

      Returns the result of the command handler function. Returns undefined when the command doesn't exists.

    • Breaks the model into its component objects. To collect objects back use index 0.

      Fires:

      Parameters

      • index: number

        Explode index. Range is 0 to 100.

      Returns void

      This method requires a Client instance to be specified to load model reference files from the Open Cloud Server.

      If there was an active dragger before opening the file, it will be deactivated. After opening the file, you must manually activate the required dragger.

      Parameters

      • file: Model | File | Assembly

      Returns this

    • Resets the state of the active dragger.

      Returns IDragger
