Thanks, Tara. Can you give a little more information about this item:

 

  • Model sequences can be applied at design time

It's not clear to me what that means, or when I would want to use it (or not). Thanks.

Hi Clay,

This feature allows you to view your model during design as it will show in the experience based on the sequence selected. It is a check box found under the sequence selector for the model.

Hope this helps!

@tmccombie So i thought one of the uses for the "Apply sequence at design time" would be to allow easy picking of model items. As in you can set your model to an exploded state, apply it in design and then create all your modelItems and switch back to the default state.

 

It seems that when you create the modelItems in this applied state they take their position from where they are in 3D at creation time. Which means you can never go back to that unexploded state. It also really messes up any sequences you have as the items will be in this wrong position until they first time they are moved in the sequence and then will jump to their correct initial position and move as defined in the sequence.

 

The take away here is: Do not create model items in an applied sequence state!

 

If anyone knows a way to reset like 100 model items positions please let me know. 😞

@tmccombie Is the grouping of ModelItems under the parent Model new? This pretty big news on the large experience organization front!

@jmikesell yes, this is a new improvement to the 3D container.

@tmccombie it seems that with the new 3D container you can no longer drag modelItems in the tree to reorder them. Not drag them out of the 3D container but just reorder in the container. This is a loss of functionality that should be fixed.

It seems like after this update my Windows laptop does will not show me the camera anymore. I just get a black background. 

 

I have tried resetting the app and uninstalling it but the problem persists. Any idea how to fix this? Or if there will be an update shortly to fix this issue?

Is anyone else experiencing an issue with Windows devices not showing the camera? We are having an issue as we are needing to demonstrate Vuforia from a Windows device.

I just tried an experience on a Surface Pro 3 with View 83.3.478.0 and it worked without problems.
