read eft

read eft

The read eft module reads EVS Textured Field (*.eft) files and displays them. This provides a mechanism to open saved OBJ file sets which require multiple files (geometry and textures) as a single file. This is required in order to package files, which is a requisite step in the creation of EVS Presentations.

Properties

PropertyTypeDescription
FilenameStringThe textured field file to read.
ExecuteButtonThe Execute button forces the module to run.
Z ScaleDoubleZ Scale is the scaling factor for vertical (z) coordinates. This value reflects a multiplication factor of the layer thickness. For example, a layer that is 10 feet thick that is subjected to a z-exaggeration value of 4 will appear 40 feet thick in the viewer.
Vertical OffsetDoubleVertical Offset translates your entire model in Z by the value input multiplied by the Z Exaggeration. This is useful if you want to move your model to avoid having coincident objects.
