Share a project with someone

First, open the model that you would like to share.

Next, click on "Share" underneath Review in the left navigation pane.

If the model is not yet in a project, you will first need to move it to a project. Otherwise, you can skip this step.

Please note that all of the plans in the project will be shared because sharing is done in Hexawise by project, not by individual model.

Add an email address and add the user

You can then select the access level:
โ€‹

As explained in the table below, you can select different usage rights based on your preferences.

When sharing with someone who is not yet familiar with how to use Hexawise, you might want to select "Can Copy and Comment on Models". That way, the person you share with will be able to make comments and ask clarifying questions, but they will not be able to "break" your work.

You can share Hexawise models via a secret URL

To create a secret URL that will grant access to anyone who uses it, simply click on the checkboxes shown below and copy the provided link.

The first option will grant any user access to the copy of the selected project. Two projects will not be in sync, each user clicking the URL will get their own version. This option is useful for making a "fresh start" but not from scratch.

The second option will grant any user the "Can Copy and Comment on Models" access to the same project.

You can use the checkbox sharing option by itself. Or you can use it in addition to the "invite by email" option.
