Security

The Security page lets you manage Composer document passwords and reduce model accuracy for theft protection.

Command Name

Description

Password

Specifies the password required to open the file.

Confirm password

Confirms the password (for improved safety).

Reduce accuracy

Reduces model accuracy by the specified amount.

Note: In the case of default document properties, the unit is millimeters.

Important: After each save, the model is degraded. Reduced accuracy prevents the unauthorized use of intellectual property contained within 3D models. Altering the exact dimensions prevents the reverse engineering and manufacturing of a part or product. The 3D image is still viewable for the purposes for which the viewer is authorized.

Tip: You can degrade portions of your model using Secure 3D Brush

(Geometry ribbon tab).
