Import dialog
post by archiscan on Oct 20, 2024
When I import a OBJ file, the preview in the import dialog shows the model correctly.
However, if I place it, there is only a blank plane.
What am I doing wrong? The units are correct (m, cm, mm).
Thanks, Olivier

Hi Archiscan, I believe you also contacted us via our website, and the issue was solved.
There was some confusion about the model not appearing on Arkio’s saved scene previews where we currently don’t show imported files yet. When you place a model from the import tab, it will be placed in the active scene on the green table surface.
You can learn more about the process of importing models on our support page
