To our best knowledge, all 3D plug-ins for Microsoft Office currently available on the market are designed for visualization or mark-up purposes with very simple GUI and virtually no modeling and editing capabilities. A typical pre-condition for using these plug-ins is the availability of the 3D digital design in a format that could be imported into the plug-ins (all these plug-ins provide, one way or another, built-in importers for supported 3D file formats). If later on the plug-in user finds that he or she needs to change the existing 3D design to fit the ever changing requirement, the only way to get this done is to go back and use again the same modeling package that was used to create The Design in the first place. Once satisfied with the modified design, the user can re-import the design into the plug-in for mark-up and visualization before sending it off for peer Review or management sign-off
Needless to say, such a "create -> import-> mark-up-> modify -> import -> mark-up" process is iterative and tedious. Besides, all the mark-up and/or visualization changes that the user has made in the plug-in before switching back to the 3D modeling package will be lost, unless there is yet another (unlikely) way to import and append the changes back into the plug-in which now hosts the modified design.
This is exactly what ThreeDify Office Desinger is designed for. ThreeDify Office Desinger is the control mode ThreeDify Designer Pro specifically designed to work within Microsoft Office applications. It runs as a MS Office plug-in and embeds fully within Microsoft Office applications, including its entire user interface. It turns Microsoft Office into a powerful 3D design and communication tool that allows any MS Office users to create, edit, mark-up, visualize and iterate their 3D and 2D CAD designs right within Microsoft Office
