1. Non-3D Scene

The non-3D scenes refer to general dashboards or detail tables with only 2D charts (namely, without the 3D components) created by using the designer, as shown in the following figure.

Note:

When no 3D components are used, some extended chart components might cause lag or slowdown. You are advised to drag the extended chart components into the canvas last during template creation.

The following table shows the recommended configurations:

The following table shows the requirements for computers used to preview templates. The configuration requirements for computers used to create templates can be a little lower than the recommended configurations, but dedicated graphics cards are highly recommended.

Generally, you need to preview the templates on the computer where you create the templates to adjust the template effects. Therefore, you are still advised to prepare devices for running the designer according to the following table.

2. General 3D Scene

The general 3D scene refers to a 3D scene where 3D cities cover a smaller area, a 3D scene with fewer custom models, or a 3D scene with less than three pages, as shown in the following figure.

The following table shows the recommended configurations:

3. Complex 3D Scene

The complex 3D scene refers to a 3D scene where 3D cities cover a larger area, a 3D scene with more custom models, or a 3D scene integrated with Unity components and having more than three pages, as shown in the following figure.

Browser Requirement for Template Preview

Note:

1. To ensure a successful preview of FineReport templates in all cases, you are advised to use the latest version of the Chrome browser preferentially.

2. For dual-core browsers such as 360 Secure Browser, you are advised to use the extreme mode. Generally, in the extreme mode, the Chrome engine is used in such browsers.
