Overview

A 3D Slide lets you add objects from your uploaded data to build a 3D presentation view. You choose which objects to add — topography, drillholes, 2D lines, and more — how they're styled, and what the initial slide view shows when the slide loads.

Note: This article applies to VRIFY Present Beta. View legacy instructions at Building 3D Presentations.

Step by Step Instructions

Note: Only files with Accepted status appear in the Asset List when building a 3D Slide. If an object is missing, check its status on the Files page. Learn more about your File Status.

Create a new 3D Slide

Click + Add Slide in the top-left corner.
Select 3D.
Select the asset you want to use on this slide.
Click Continue.

The 3D slide loads with topography and property boundaries added automatically. The slide will appear in the slide panel on the left.

Add objects to your 3D Slide

To add data objects to your 3D slide, click Edit 3D Slide in the top right. Two panels appear:

Add Objects & Files panel (top left) — all processed files and available objects for your selected asset
Object Settings panel (top right) — all objects currently added to the 3D slide

To add a data object to your 3D slide:

In the Add Objects & Files panel, open a folder.
Click the + icon next to the object you want to add.

The object appears in the Object Settings panel and loads into the 3D Slide. Repeat for each object you want to include.

Show or Hide Layers

Click the eye icon next to each layer to show or hide it:

Grey eye with slash = layer hidden
White eye with no slash = layer visible

In edit mode, these icons will be beside each object in the Object Settings panel.

In view and present mode, you can access the layers using the 3D Layers list located in the lower right-hand side of the slide

Navigate in the 3D Slide

Using a mouse:

Rotate: Click and hold the left mouse button, then drag to spin the model.
Zoom: Scroll with your mouse wheel to zoom in or out.
Pan: Click and hold the right mouse button, then drag to move the model side-to-side or up and down.

You can also use the compass to adjust the viewpoint when you are in edit mode.

3D Slide objects

The following data objects are available to add to a 3D Slide in VRIFY Present. Click an object's title in the Object Settings panel to open its configuration panel.

Topography	Displays terrain across your property. Style options include contours, gradients, and hatch patterns.
Property Boundaries	Shows your property boundaries overlaid on the topography.
Drillholes	Displays drilling data in 3D. Configure collars, traces, assays, lithology, and highlights, and filter drillholes by date.
Geochemistry	Displays geochemical sample data. Create bins and adjust cylinder dimensions and lighting.
Geophysics	Displays geophysical raster data layered over the topography. Apply colour gradients and layer multiple surveys.
Block models	Displays block model data. Multi-partition models are consolidated into a single import panel.
2D Images	Places a flat image such as a photo, cross-section, or corporate slide in the 3D Slide. Use the opacity slider and billboard toggle to control how the image appears.
2D Lines	Adds infrastructure or geology data as 2D line features in the 3D Slide. Configure colour, line style, opacity, and node radius.
3D Objects	Place 3D models into your 3D Slide. Georeferenced (static) objects are fixed in space; non-georeferenced objects are movable and can be repositioned.
Pit Shells	Adds a pit shell mesh to the 3D Slide. Adjust colour using the colour picker in the config panel.
VRIFY Predict Results	Displays DORA prediction outputs in the 3D viewer. Adjust prediction settings, VRIFY Prospectivity Score (VPS), target groups, and learning data.

3D Slide Tools and Features

3D slides include a set of tools and features to control how your 3D Slide looks and how viewers interact with it. Each is independent and can be used alongside any data objects in the 3D Slide.

Feature	Description
Labels	Add a text label anchored to any point in the 3D Slide.
Legends	Display a legend in the viewer explaining colour coding or symbology in your 3D Slide.
X-Ray Mode	Makes objects visible even when they are positioned behind terrain or other objects in the 3D Slide.
Highlight	Applies a glow effect to draw attention to a specific object in the 3D Slide.
Compass	Toggle the interactive 3D compass between small and large sizes. Compass visibility is saved per slide. The compass can be used to navigate when the slide is in Edit mode
Scale Bar	Appears automatically in the 3D Slide and adjusts dynamically.

Additional Notes

Add only the objects needed to support your message. Too many visible layers reduce clarity.
Duplicate a slide to reuse its layout and objects for similar views.
Preview your 3D Slide in Present mode before sharing to confirm the camera position and object visibility.
Quickly insert a 3D Slide into another presentation by clicking on the three-dot menu on the thumbnail and select Export to another 3D Presentation
