Overview 
 

Welcome to WiseDimensions 3D Visioner

3D Visioner is an add-on for Microsoft Visio 2002/2003 that brings the third dimension to your two dimensional Visio drawings with dramatic 3D viewing and editing capabilities.  3D Visioner displays an entire project in one 3D scene, including all pages, Visio shapes, connectors, hyperlinks, and inter-page links.  These 3D models will improve your ability to communicate your designs, proposals, and ideas more effectively.

The process is simple... Create your Visio diagrams as you usually do and then extrude them into the third dimension with a single mouse click. 3D Visioner will help you exploit the power of 3D images with a minimum of effort.  It requires no special system configuration, knowledge, or hardware. All actions in the Visio drawing will be automatically synchronized with the 3D View.  A mouse provides most of the input you will need. 3D Visioner will significantly improve your Visio experience with navigation tools that display the relationships between Visio pages in a single view. You can also easily rotate and scale your 3D view through simple mouse actions.

Finally, you can save your 3D Visio project models and share it with others using the FREE Wise 3D Viewer.

Summary of features:

• Full integration with Microsoft Visio using the familiar "anchor window" that can be moved, resized, and docked as required.

• Surprisingly fast 3D engine with software rendering that does not require special display hardware.

• Extrude 2D Visio shapes into 3D models.

• Support for Visio's Building Plan and Network stencils.
  Note: additional stencil support will be available in the future.

• Using Network visualization you can see the entire topology of your network in one 3D window, including all links, sites and nodes.

• Animation shows which other nodes are connected to the selected node.

• Easily zoom, rotate and pan.

• Easy navigation

• Navigation is enhanced in 3D because you can rotate, pan and scale the entire project including all its pages and objects at the same time.

• When you select an object in 3D, it immediately becomes selected in Microsoft Visio project.

• Create Hyperlinks between pages with less effort.

• Enhanced 3D models with visual themes, shadows and reflections.

• Define angularity and curvature of the links and vertical distance between pages by rotating your mouse wheel.

• 3D Visioner automatically adds a set of custom 3D properties to each shape in your 2D Visio drawing to define individual 3D representation for each shape.

• Export to all popular graphics formats.
