In their own words
BIMx Web Viewer
BIMx Web Viewer lets people explore a BIMx Hyper-model in a browser without installing a program or downloading an app. A Hyper-model combines linked 2D project documents, embedded BIM data, and 3D models. Hyper-models can be created in Archicad or DDScad and published locally, to BIMx Model Transfer, to BIMcloud, or elsewhere. The Measure tool supports length, angle, and area measurements in 2D, with measurement guides in 3D. Users can play presentations based on Gallery views or Favorites, with automatic transitions between views. Favorites are saved in the browser and are not included when a Hyper-model is shared. BIMx Pro features include hiding 3D elements, controlling layer visibility, and changing the cut plane; Model Transfer access requires an eligible company membership and Graphisoft ID sign-in. Browser support varies by operating system: Windows lists Chrome, Edge, and Firefox; macOS lists Safari, Chrome, and Firefox; Android lists Chrome. The system requirements list iOS and iPadOS as unsupported. The viewer is free, and Graphisoft provides online help and a support contact.
