Creating Smart 3D symbol content using the .NET 3D API provides the following benefits:

  1. Access to the new and improved 3D API application objects and services.

  2. Use of the 3D API from within the latest .NET framework.

  3. Built-in support for running in future 64-bit applications.

To place a symbol in the 3D environment, you need graphical data (.NET symbol) and non-graphical data (Excel workbook containing specifications, rules, dimensional data, and so forth).

To create a symbol in the software, do the following:

  1. Understand the geometry and use of the symbol.

  2. Write .NET code for the geometry outputs to be created.

  3. Sign the assembly with a strong name.

  4. Bulkload the symbol data into the catalog database.

You do not need to manually grant the computer access to the .NET assemblies. The software automatically handles the procedure.
