Tips & Tricks

How to’s live in Settings

You can find “Help & Tips” in the setting menu for using all the features of the viewer so you can revisit your spaces better.

Camera modes

Switch views with the three buttons in the bottom-left corner. Each one moves a little differently.

  • Dollhouse — Orbit the whole model from the outside. Right-drag to orbit, middle-drag to pan, scroll to zoom.

  • Top-Down — A flat floor plan seen straight from above — it does not rotate. Right-drag to pan, scroll to zoom.

  • First Person — Stand inside the scan at eye level. Right-drag to look around, W/A/S/D or the arrow keys to walk, Q/E to rise and drop. Click anywhere on the scan to travel there — onto the spot on a floor, or facing it on a wall or object.

Measure distances and areas

Pick the measurement tool on the left, then click points on the scan. Switch between distance and area, and undo or redo while you draw.

Replay the capture video

Open the video panel to watch the original walkthrough. The camera can follow the capture path so you always know where you are in the scan.

Only available for scale customers, and newly captured scans.

Settings

Use the settings button in the bottom-right to change distance units or toggle the clipping plane. Reopen this guide any time from Settings → Help & Tips.
