Video – Customizing the UI

This video shows several possibilities to customize the UI of the Kisters 3DViewStation, i.e. to maximize size of the graphics area by minimizing other windows. Hide the ribbons, let windows disappear automatically, have windows float, add & remove controls to the quick access toolbar, arrange own layout of the windows. Here is the english version of the video.

Integration 3DViewStation in Aras Innovator

We started the integration of the Kisters 3DViewStation into Aras Innovator. It is intended to have it certified and it will then be the DMU-solution for Aras innovator. We did a series of short videos showing several scenarios:

  • native CAD viewing vs. 3DVS-fileformat viewing
  • creating true multiCAD DMUs – mixing assemblies coming from various sources without upfront translation
  • comparing revisions of assemblies
  • using color coding to graphically show the release status of all parts of an assembly
  • virtual product handling: support of assemblies where the BOM and position information is defined in Aras Innovator only – no CAD assembly file exists.

Here is the link to the complete playlist for Aras integrations.

Digital Rights Management (DRM) + 3DViewStation + Image AX

A demo covering the subject Digital Rights Management (DRM, ERM). We show an integration of our Kisters 3DViewStation and Open Text (Spicer)  Content Viewer Toolkit (Image AX) with the DRM-tools of AirZip: securing of files (3D CAD, 2D CAD, office, PDF…), categories of permissions, options, watermarks, protection against screendumps… find more at https://viewer.kisters.de and http://www.airzip.com.
