Colormap Model Viewer?

I have an arm with an RS3 laser scanner that we use quite a bit. I don't like the reporting feature of the colormap so I've been taking multiple screenshots of a colormapped part from different views and sending those off as first articles. This works fine albeit time consuming so I am thinking there has to be an easier way to view and rotate the colormapped model.

Does anyone know of a 3d viewer I might be able to use in order to send the file off to the engineer and allow them to rotate the part however they want to instead of me taking screenshots of multiple views?

I am able to save any model in Pro-E as a U3d file and open it in Adobe and rotate it but I cannot save the actual colormapped model.

  • what version are y'all using to Screen Capture?

    Honestly, I usually use Insert > Report Command > Analysis View to get my report pics. I've found that Screen Capture pulls a static picture that doesn't update from run to run, whereas Analysis View will do so. Got burned when I set a customer 20 reports with the exact same picture on each one -- thankfully I had saved the runs and could replace Screen Cap with Analysis View. Whew.

    I've been using the Screen Cap / Analysis View since PCDMIS 4.3mr1. If something is not working right in your versions, I would definitely like to know.
