Default glTF version

When uploading definitions to ShapeDiver, there are several ways to generate display outputs that can be visualized in the online viewer and accessed through the viewer API. Use the “Default glTF Version” option to influence the nature of the geometry that is generated when using the following methods:

• Generic Grasshopper components that have their preview turned on

• Using the native Custom Preview component of Grasshopper

• Using the Legacy Display component

It is possible to switch between glTF 1.0 (primarily for backwards compatibility purposes) and glTF 2.0.

Since release 1.13, the default behavior for newly generated definitions has been changed to generate glTF 2.0 assets.
