MYRIAD Desktop GL

Users rating:

MYRIAD GL helps you get the most out of your project files in less time by providing a single application that you can use to view anything from an AutoCAD drawing to a Microsoft Word file. This means fewer expensive CAD seats to buy and it allows all team members to review relevant files, regardless of their technical expertise. Those with less technical aptitude will appreciate MYRIAD GL’s simple interface, while those with more will find MYRIAD GL’s tool set robust and useful for obtaining the required information.

The MYRIAD Publish option also allows you to dynamically publish documents, 2D CAD views and 3D models to interactive HTML web pages. Several publishing methods are available, varying the output complexity and interactivity, to offer specific benefits for different needs.
Connecting the created HTML pages to your existing Web pages is very simple. Using an HTML tool (like Microsoft FrontPage), drag the published file folder into your Web site project, and link to the base start page. It's that easy.

MYRIAD GL also has a convenient Web interface that provides a thin-client Web version with full functionality.

Out-of-the-box integrations are available for the top PLM and E/PDM systems, including Documentum and Matrix.

Versatile

MYRIAD supports over 150 file formats, from CAD drawings to graphic formats to office formats, without requiring the native application. That means fewer seats of expensive CAD packages and less software to install and maintain. One application does it all.

Powerful

Whether you are sharing your files with project partners, vendors, sales, marketing or customers, MYRIAD contains all the tools you need to get the information you want and to communicate ideas effectively. Group project files together in a virtual folder that can be used by all users. Automatically attach markup files to source files. Track markups by author. Streamline your engineering change order (ECO) process with Changemarks, which leads reviewers through every comment, ensuring none are missed. Ensure all changes are made correctly with Side-by-Side Compare. Add print banners or a watermark to communicate time, date, revision, or other information on printouts.

Interactive

MYRIAD has a full set of tools for every type of file. Manipulate drawings and models, view and hide layers or parts, save model views, view the parts list, and perform complex measurements. Adjust raster rendering modes, change to monochrome, change model lighting and more.

Complete

With out-of-the-box integrations to top PDM systems, MYRIAD easily fits into any business system. It is available in stand alone or network versions and has a full-feature browser interface that works seamlessly with the desktop version.

User-Friendly

MYRIAD has the basic Windows look and feel, so every users can easily find basic features such as File Open, Print, and Save. MYRIAD’s compartmentalized features and commands make it easy for every user to get the information they need, regardless of skill level.

Publish a 3D CAD model to ModelPress

Publish all or part of a 3D model assembly with digital rights to ISF, viewable by the ModelPress Viewer. Publish directly to HTML pages with the fully interactive or simple (orbit, pan, and zoom only) ModelPress Viewer embedded (users without Viewer installed automatically prompted to download). Or, just send the published model via email for review with the free ModelPress Viewer (large models are usually compressed by 70-98% make data transfer efficient). This option provides full 3D content and, optionally, the most interaction possible.

Publish a 3D CAD model view sets as interactive image

Create view sets of a model in MYRIAD (user-defined, or pre-set view orientations, part callouts, cutaways, dimensioned views, etc.) and publish them to an HTML page with a small, embedded Java applet for a “3D-like” experience – jump to views, view bounding box size (isometric view), view\select parts, and explode parts. 8-16K images make this method ideal for lower bandwidth usage when 3D rotating isn’t essential to visualize design concepts.

Publish 3D CAD view sets to HTML

Use MYRIAD to display the CAD model and to create custom view sets (see above) with notes. Publish the view sets to simple, static HTML pages with embedded JPEG images that allow a reviewer to step through each view and read your notes. This option provides minimal interactivity with the content.

Publish 3D CAD view sets for markup with IGC’s Brava!

Use MYRIAD to create custom view sets that highlight your areas of concern/discussion for design collaboration in Brava!. Publish the view sets to a Brava-compatible file format (MVP) for web-based view and markup inside and outside the firewall. Your models stay secure, data transfers are minimal, and expertise in using 3D visualization software is not required.

Publish 3D and 2D Changemarks to HTML

Use Myraid’s Changemarks feature (notes that record display state, author name, and date) to explain changes at each markup area throughout the file(s), including 3D model view sets, CAD drawings, and documents. With a single click, the Changemarks HTML publish feature automatically creates HTML pages with embedded JPEG images for each markup with convenient next/previous buttons to step through each page. This method is for use inside and outside the firewall, since your models stay secure, data transfers are minimal, and expertise in using CAD visualization software is not required.
