As 3D models become increasingly more prevalent and complex, the need for a quality 3D viewing program grows. Initially released in April 2017 and rebranded in October 2018, Microsoft 3D Viewer has become a useful tool for those looking to visualize 3D models. Today, the program’s capable of viewing a variety of 3D model types, as well as several kinds of 3D animations.
These days, many use 3D Viewer as a way to photograph and stage their work. The program comes with a variety of lighting and texturing tools that can help your model shine, as well as a mixed reality feature that allows you to visualize your idea in the real world.
Seeing as it’s a Microsoft program, 3D Viewer also has the advantage of integrating seamlessly with other Windows software. The program allows you to automatically export to Paint 3D for editing and to download designs uploaded to Remix 3D from 3D Builder – all from within the app!
3D Viewer comes pre-installed on most Windows machines. If you don’t already have it, you can download it for free from the Microsoft store. Now, let’s find out if 3D Viewer is the right software for you!
