# Previewer

### About

The Model Inspector allows MOTAR users with appropriate permissions to preview a 3D model directly embedded in the HUB Listing.

{% hint style="info" %}
Instructions explaining different permissions types can be found at the link below:

{% endhint %}

### Image Viewer

Images are static on the screen unless additional thumbnails were provided by the creator. In that case, a carousel is displayed where you can scroll through the different images.

### 3D Model Viewer

3D Models can be interacted with right on the viewer page. See below for the controls available. You can also view any additional models in the viewer by clicking on the additional thumbnail below it. &#x20;

#### Final Render

When the "Final Render" option is selected, the model displayed in the viewer is the "Final Render" of the 3D model.

#### Matcap

The Matcap displays a surface material and lighting environment simply by painting an object so that it shows proper texture, highlights, and lowlights.
