How to spawn 3D models dynamically by pressing a button within experience?

Hi Katrin, 

lets break your use case down to single functionalities. 

Manipulation xyz:

Using spatial tracking this is possible: Scaling, rotating around Y, moving along Z and X (on ground). To my knowledge this is only applicable on one object. 

Using sliders: Scaling each axis separately or combined, rotating around every axis, moving along every axis. You can apply this on different object types (model, picture, ...) and by using an iterator in your js you can skip through objects. 

Multiplying objects: 

AFAIK you can't duplicate models via runtime, but you could load a fix number into your view and make them all invisible. By clicking on a next bottom, one object gets visible after another. 

Other possibility is, to have 3 objects in your view, have two of them visible. The invisible one will move to the next waypoint. 

If the positions must be editable and within the experience and be stored permanently, you could use thingworx or create a data bank. 

I hope I understood your use case the right way. It can be a bit tricky to find out, what the final result shall be.

Cheers,

You can use this function from tml3dRenderer:

tml3dRenderer.addPVS: (
trackerName: string,
id: string,
src: string,
cull: unknown,
parent: unknown,
successCallback: () => void,
errorCallback: (err) => void
) => void;

An example:

tml3dRenderer.addPVS('tracker1', 'model-1', '/app/resources/Uploaded/car1.pvz', undefined, undefined, () => {
console.log(`tml3dRenderer.addPVS:: added new model`);
}, (err) => {
console.log(`tml3dRenderer.addPVS:: failed to add new model: ${JSON.stringify(err)}`);
});
