Draft

Definition

The X3D-Edit 3.2 Authoring Tool for Extensible 3D (X3D) Graphics supports the creation, checking, display and publication of X3D scenes. It is written in open-source Java and XML using the Netbeans 6.7 platform, making it suitable both as a standalone application and as a plugin module for the Netbeans integrated development environment (IDE).

X3D-Edit features include direct editing of X3D scenes using the XML (.x3d) encoding, embedded visualization of scenes using the Xj3D viewer, XML validation using X3D DTD grammars, X3D Schema grammars and X3D Schematron rules, drag-and-drop palette for X3D nodes, popup panels for node editing, and extensive help resources. Further features include ClassicVRML and X3D compressed binary encoding support, encryption and digital-signature authentication using XML Security standards, and additional X3D scene authoring support.
