Model Viewer 3D

Description

Model Viewer 3D allows for displaying 3D models.
Please note that when using a mobile device, an additional icon will be visible in the vicinity of the 3D model. Interacting with the icon allows switching the preview to the Augmented Reality mode (https://modelviewer.dev/examples/augmentedreality).

Properties

The list starts with the common properties, learn more about them by visiting the Modules description section. The other available properties are described below.

Property name	Description
Model	Path to the file containing the 3D model. Supports only the glTF/GLB 3D models.
Poster	Displays an image instead of the model, useful for showing the user something before the model is loaded and ready to render.
Annotations	Additional text displayed in the preview.
Environment Image	Controls the environmental reflection of the model. Normally, if skybox-image is set, that image will also be used for the environment-image.
Skybox Image	Sets the background image of the scene. Takes a URL to an equirectangular projection image that is used for the skybox, as well as applied as an environment map on the model. Supports PNG, HDR, and JPG images.
Shadow Intensity	Controls the opacity of the shadow. Setting it to 0 turns off the shadow.
Shadow Softness	Controls the blurriness of the shadow. Setting it to 0 results in hard shadows. Softness should not be changed for each frame as this has a performance cost.
Auto Rotate	Automatically slowly rotates the model.
Scale	Sets scale of the model.
Labels Enabled on Start	Labels are visible immediately after loading the model.
Alt Text	Sets the alternative text for the "model-viewer" element.
Additional Attributes	Additional attributes that could be set for the model (see the Additional Attributes section below). Data should be entered in JSON format.
Copyright Info	This field contains information relating to copyright.
Interaction Prompt	Allows disabling the visual and audible interaction prompt. If checked, the interaction prompt is set to "auto". The interaction prompt will be displayed as soon as the interaction-prompt-threshold time has elapsed (after the model is loaded). The interaction prompt will only display if camera-controls are enabled.

Supported commands

Command name	Params	Description
show	...	Shows the module if it is hidden.
hide	...	Hides the module if it is visible.
showAnnotations	...	Shows annotations if they are available for the model.
hideAnnotations	...	Hides annotations available for the model.
getAnnotationsVisibility	...	Returns annotations visibility status of the model.
setScale	number	Sets the model's scale.

Additional Attributes Examples

Attribute	Description
autoplay	Possible values: "true", "false". When set to "true", the animation is played automatically when the page is loaded.
animation-name	Changes the default animation to the specified one.
camera-orbit	Sets the starting position of the camera. The properties are specified in the following order: x-axis, y-axis, and camera distance. Example value: "0deg 75deg 105%".
max-camera-orbit	Sets the maximum orbital values of the camera – useful if the default 3D model values are too large/too small. Example value: "auto 360deg 120%".
camera-target	Sets the starting point that the camera orbits around. The properties are specified in the following order: x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis. Example value: "1m -1m 0m".

The full list of attributes is available at https://modelviewer.dev/docs/
