Hi,  
one of my Discourse communities is very specialized on CAD construction. Therefore I’m looking for a easy-to-use way of embedding the most common construction file formats. Has someone else any kind of solution?

Something like this: [Have a try!](https://myhub.autodesk360.com/u09/shares/public/SH7f1edQT22b515c761e4e63d0ac8bfe671d? __hssc=109250906.6.1442885065393&__ hstc=109250906.d387df3ba65157a0a53257f653d6375a.1441228671900.1442880592176.1442885065393.14&hsCtaTracking=f57bee26-55e3-497b-bae4-9ed3819f3547%7C213b9367-5184-4297-a273-067229bc5b65)

Or do you guys think we’re able to embed those A360 viewer?  
[https://360.autodesk.com/viewer](https://360.autodesk.com/viewer)  
(ahhh they have a limitation at storing time: max 30 days)

My preferred way is: Uploading the right file format → getting an viewer with UI elements and download option.

Other thoughts appreciated.

##Update #1:  
I found something similar at FormLabs Community forums:

It should be possible to embed the [STL viewer from GitHub](https://help.github.com/articles/3d-file-viewer/), but it’s limited to STL and it requires Javascript (i.e. it’s not an `<iframe>`).

我喜欢在网站上使用这个来查看 STL 文件：[Stl Viewer Javascript Plugin- Docs](https://www.viewstl.com/plugin/)  
如果能有一个配套的插件那就太好了。
