Hello, I’m working on 3D Cadastre, I want to select different parts (lots) from a building and display attribute it. Can you help me for this? I don’t want to select whole of a building, Do you have code for selecting different parts from building? Thank you, Sabah ---

What type of data are you working with? Is it just a glTF or a combination of glTF with some sort of vector data? ---

Hello, First data is with CityGML format (a building with attribute) then i convert it to COLLADA then to glTF format, The building including multi-unit buildings, I want to select different parts from building then display attribute it in the Cesium, ---

Some information may get lost from the CityGML to glTF conversion. Can you send over one of your models? Is it possible to select different nodes in a model like in this dev-example: [http://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Apps/Sandcastle/index.html?src=development/3D%20Models.html&label=Showcases](http://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Apps/Sandcastle/index.html?src=development/3D%20Models.html&label=Showcases) and then show or hide the picked node by setting node.show to true or false. I don’t think the attributes would be preserved, but I’d like to check out the model you have. ---

Hello, Thank you, I don’t think so, Yes i attached my model, I want to select units of building and display attribute it on screen.(I send for you image from example). I don’t want to enter coordinate of object, i want to read coordinate of building from model and display attribute of building by any click(select model). i sent for you snapshot from my model that i run(by error name, first image).

Hello Sabah. Can I know how you build your building from the scratch until it can have the function to display the attributes? ---

By install city engine plug-in on sketch up.
