Web Standalone Export

This page provides information about the Web Standalone export function in Enscape.

Overview

The Web Standalone renders scenes in the browser using WebGL 2.0. This removes the need for high-end graphics cards.

To create a Web Standalone, Enscape needs to be running. Navigate to the small arrow next to Executable Standalone to reveal the drop-down menu where the option Web Standalone is located.

Embedding the Web Standalone

You can embed the Web Standalone on your webpage if you need to monitor the number of people viewing your project, for instance. This can be done by embedding the URL into an iframe using the following script:

<code data-v-c2b1f83f=""><span data-v-c2b1f83f="" class="line"><script defer type="text/javascript"</span><span data-v-c2b1f83f="" class="line"> src="data:text/javascript,document.getElementById('collab-frame').addEventListener('mouseover',function(e){e.target.focus()});"</span><span data-v-c2b1f83f="" class="line"> ></script></span><span data-v-c2b1f83f="" class="line"> <iframe</span><span data-v-c2b1f83f="" class="line"> id="collab-frame"</span><span data-v-c2b1f83f="" class="line"> width="850" height="550" style="border: 0;" scrolling="no" loading="lazy"</span><span data-v-c2b1f83f="" class="line"> src="<your web standalone URL placed here>"</span><span data-v-c2b1f83f="" class="line"> allow="fullscreen; xr-spatial-tracking;" referrerpolicy="strict-origin"</span><span data-v-c2b1f83f="" class="line"> ></iframe></span></code>
