The Click to open 3D Chrome extension enables seamless downloading and opening of 3D files from websites directly into the 3DView application. Designed for users who frequently explore 3D models online, such as on popular platforms like Thingiverse, it provides instant access to viewing and editing 3D files without hassle.

To use this extension, the 3DView app is required—a lightweight and free tool tailored for 3D modeling and printing. The app offers comprehensive features including viewing, quality inspection, measuring, editing, and sharing 3D models. It supports a wide variety of file formats like STL, OBJ, AMF, 3DS, PLY, Collada, and more, making it ideal for hobbyists, designers, and remote teams collaborating on 3D projects.

WHY DO I GET THIS OBNOXIOUS POP-UP EVERY TIME I JUST WANT TO DL AN .STL FILE!!! I DON"T WANT YOUR FRIGGING POS PROGRAM, NEVER ASKED FOR IT, AND TOTALLY RESENT THAT YOU ARE FORCING ME TO DOWNLOAD SOMETHING I DON'T WANT TO USE! REMOVE THIS REQUEST FOR ME TO DL, BBB REPORT, OR LAWSUIT FOR ATTEMPTED HIJACKING OF MY DOWNLOADS THROUGH YOUR APP... YOUR CHOICE!
