![]() ![]() Otherwise you see a green tint to any object with a link applied. This was then changed to a hot spot with an appropriate shade applied to ensure that hovering over the link had no adverse effect on the display. The swatches for the colour options were all originally highlighting in green. That is it allows you to customise the highlight colour for links. Hotspots also give another additional treat. This comes through nicely into the SVG file. ![]() You can colour the hot spot and when you hover over the hotspot you see the dynamic highlighting. This is useful to allow users to navigate around a system and highlights the complete group instead of the individual parts. Hotspots allows you to create groups of objects to act as a common link. But there is another way! This involves using Hotspots. This allows us to use single items to link to other files. Remember that if we have an object, or ‘actor’ to use the SOLIDWORKS Composer term, that we have updated with link information, we can update that object across multiple views. Then all we need to do is continue with this process, adding links in each of the views. By keeping the link simple like this we know that as long as we keep all the SVG files in the same folder we will be ok. Since this is for web content we need to do this. So for the colour options we linked to the TRIKE-RED.svg file. For the front page we set a link to the relevant SVG file. To add the interactivity we need to add links to our objects in the views. What we could show is limited only by our own imagination, or requirements of the customers. So first set up all your views, here are a couple of them:Īs you can see we have colour options and parts lists. They are scalable vector graphics so, no matter the size, we wont get pixelated results. We are going to use SVG output files for this. Here you will see the colour options for the bike as well as links for the spare parts. So for this we wanted to show a couple of options for content. I can do what I want to position the geometry without worrying that I am breaking the SOLIDWORKS model.įor this blog we are using the SSM Trike which was a design project from a group of our interns. We don’t have to worry about mates or display states for this. This highlights another great feature of using SOLIDWORKS Composer. The first thing to do is to create some image views. One of our favorite things about SOLIDWORKS Composer is the way you can take your images to a whole new level, with the ability to create content that you can navigate quickly and easily. ![]()
