[Qgis-user] New 3D Map View feature

[Walt Ludwick]

I'd heard about this exciting new feature coming in v3.18, so -tho i've
never been tempted by a dev release before- soon as i saw Tim Sutton's
latest tweet <https://twitter.com/timlinux/status/1360342830443601932>, i
had to jump on it.  Works great in all respects, AFAICT so far, except...
Well, it could be there's something wrong w/ the file i'm trying to explore
via "New 3D Map View" feature, but when i tilt the image in viewer from
plan to elevation, it's as though i'm tilting a slice of paper.

SO this is to ask, if anyone w/ knowledge of this feature can say: is this
supposed to work on a file that's been saved out of AutoCAD 3D in .DXF
format?   As i don't have AutoCAD, i also asked my architect to generate a
.SKP version of this model, which renders as it should in the free online
viewer from Trimble... So i know the .DWG source of this data is good, but
i gather that QGIS doesn't work with (proprietary) .DWG format, so... Any
advice about what file format(s) this 3D viewer can render would be much
appreciated.
