Update a model
If you make any changes to an imported
model in its original modeling package, these changes are not made
to the model you imported into your Autodesk® Showcase™ software
scene until you request to reload the model.
The Import Status window
provides a Conversion Status column that
indicates those models that were updated since they were loaded
into the software.
When you re-import a
model,
- You can keep any of the transformations
you may have applied to it in Autodesk Showcase.
- If the model was moved, scaled, or rotated
in its original modeling software, these transformations are also
applied on re-import.
- You do not need to apply zero transforms
to the original model (to bake its transformations) before re-importing
it.
Reload a model
To see updates you’ve
made to a model:
- In the Autodesk Showcase software, press I to use
the Import Status window.
- Find the file in the list.
(In the Conversion Status column,
it will say, “Needs update.”)
- Click on the file to select it.
- Click the Convert button.
