BIM 360 Docs & HoloBuilder EU: With HoloBuilder EU and an existing Autodesk BIM 360 account, you can log in to access your BIM 360 Docs assets/files and import them to be used inside your HoloBuilder EU projects. Floor plans, pictures and .dae/.obj files which have been stored and managed in BIM 360 Docs can be attached to any HoloBuilder EU project. For instance, a PDF floor plan residing in BIM 360 Docs can be used within HoloBuilder EU as a sheet.
