Size of buildings from maps

The buildings loaded with the map tool represent existing context of a site, so by default we only load them as static model. The loaded OSM buildings, that come from the map tool, also contain existing information that would become a big mess if you could start editing buildings. If you want to ed...

This way you can drop those objects into Unity or Blender, start to pull apart the materials like you want, and build your Unity project to VR world. Our plugin ...

This should keep your models and scene locked in place so you can move around freely without moving your content. If your...


Lock model view in AR seems buggy

Hi👋 great questions! Happy to help clarify these details

You have the right idea what causes the lock to toggle off. When you use the scaling function (the side grips) this will cause the unlock to happen. This happens to me a bit when I’m trying to float around while in locked mode, so I feel yo...

They should only appear when you use the Lock command on your wristband, but I recall there were some bugs with these auto creating in earlier versions. You can clear these from your scene by navigating ...

  2. Override you...
