Hello,  
I used FME to convert buidling to open them in Paraview. I only found the GLTF as a compatible output format. I can read it with Paraview but when I export the scene as a GLTF I only have the geographic extent in the output.  
I can’t upload a GLTF file in this message (error)  
Thanks, Frank

The glTF exporter only export the first block of the geometry, this should be improved.

In the meantime, use the MergeBlocks filter before exporting to gltf format.
