HOOPS Export provides direct integration between client applications built with either Teigha for .dwg files or Teigha for .dgn file and the HOOPS high-performance graphics system from Tech Soft 3D.
With HOOPS integration, applications can support:
- Rich 2D and 3D integrated scene-graph creation and management.
- Fast interactive on-screen viewing, manipulation, and interaction.
- Optimal rendering on both OpenGL and Direct3D.
- High quality text rendering and management.
- Crisp print and plot output.
- All major 32-bit and 64-bit platforms, including Windows Vista. Note that the HOOPS Export is currently available for Windows only. Contact ODA support for information about additional platforms.
The ODA HOOPS Export module can be used in the following ways:
- Part Viewer Plug-in — Allows .dwg and .dgn files to be loaded directly into the HOOPS Part Viewer (or similar applications).
- Export to HSF or HMF — Converts .dwg and .dgn files to HSF (HOOPS Stream Format) or HMF (HOOPS Metafile Format) for easy integration with applications that already work with these two standard formats.

The HOOPS Export integration module and its source code is included in the standard Teigha binary distributions beginning with previously released versions 2.7.3. However, HOOPS Export requires a separate license from TechSoft3d. Please see www.techsoft3d.com/products/licensing.html for more details.
