Notes
- The same 3D tessellation the 3D viewer shows is embedded (solids, surfaces, regions and meshes); its fineness comes from FACETRES.
- Each triangle carries the colour of its object or layer.
- The model is shown flat (unlit), with no textures or animation. PRC is not supported.
- A reader with 3D support (Adobe Acrobat/Reader) is needed to navigate the model.
