Hello

I would like to create some nice 3D animations on ingnition. One way that i found is to use Canvas 3D, but all scripts examples are using jhplot library that is not workin on Ignition.  
There are more ways to made 3D animations over this SCADA? Maybe HTML 5? JAVA 3D?  
thanks!

There isn’t anything built into Ignition that supports 3D animation.

However, you could become a developer and make your own module in Java that could later be imported into Ignition. Unfortunately we would not be able to offer support in developing the module.

Besides the fact that 3d does not adhere to the high performance hmi discipline are there other reasons for this?  
Can you be more precise in the reasoning that support for this development would not be offered?
