Is there a way to keep an o2c model on a separate monitor screen while the 3D model is being tweaked in DCAD on another screen? I only know of clicking on the o2c icon in the toolbar to get an o2c image up and it then won't let me make model edits in DCAD without closing out the o2c window.

David,

Using CTRL+SHIFT+R will let that window stay open while editing in DataCAD.

One other way that I have recently discovered is to download and install the O2C viewer then export the O2C from DataCAD (it's actually faster) then open that O2C file. This also lets you view the O2C while making changes with better resolution.

This is one reason I've been looking for an Export > O2C shortcut/extended code :lol:

If you're giving an O2C to a client I recommend viewing with the publically available O2C viewer because there are color differences depending on your DataCAD settings and the Viewer seems smoother in regards to resolution.
