The Data Bar is empty until you import trial capture data (C3D files) that were processed in Vicon Nexus/Workstation. You can import data from either Data Management (Eclipse) or the Home ribbon.

You can import a variety of files into Polygon reports, including web pages, videos, and more. Most files become panes within Polygon for which you can create hyperlinks.

You can import these file formats:

• Vicon (C3D) Polygon External Data (PXD)
• VCM Report (GCD)
• 3D Mesh (OBJ)
• Marker Set (MKR)
• Adobe Acrobat (PDF)
• Video (MPG, AVI)
• PowerPoint (PPT, PPTX)
