Upload options
All options in the Upload Settings dialog of the iJewel platform, with their default values.
The upload settings open when you upload a 3D file. The first time, the title is Before your first upload. After that, it is Upload settings. Select the upload button, for example Upload 1 file, to start the upload. The platform remembers your settings in the browser for the next upload.
Main options
| Option | Default | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Auto convert to GLB | On | Converts the file to the GLB format. |
| Compression | On | Makes the 3D file smaller. |
| Auto centre | On | Centers the model on the axis. |
| Auto scale | On | Scales the model automatically. |
| Protect on upload | Off | Encrypts the file. It opens only in iJewel viewers, and a downloaded copy cannot be opened elsewhere. See Protected files. |
