Overview

This deserializer converts X3D (XML encoded) formatted data (files) to JSCAD scripts or geometries.

X3D Implementation Notes

The X3D XML Coding changes as new releases are published.

This deserializer converts only what is supported by JSCAD libraries. Full document conversion is NOT supported, however conversion of the following X3D entities are possible:

UNIT can be changed by a 'unit' statement

  • length (meters * conversionFactor)
  • angle (radians * conversionFactor)

In addition, colors as part of materials are added to geometry. And colors as part of mesh are added to polygons of a geometry.

Finally, there are many applications that can save to X3D formats. All testing is performed with X3D files from Web3D.org, period.
