Rotate

Access Rotate from the Model Tune window (Model Tools > Model Tune > Rotate).

Use Rotate to rotate the model around the X, Y, and Z axes. You can scale the model by specifying a rotation in degrees on each axis or by using the gizmo.

The Rotate tab also includes:

  • Lock Position to save the model's current position, rotation, and scale.
  • Reset to revert unsaved changes made in this tab.

Rotate the model

  1. In the Model Tune menu, select the Rotate tab.

  2. Change the model's rotation relative to the site:

    • To manually change the model's rotation:

      1. Enable Drag Gizmo.
      2. Airtap a plane of rotation, then pinch and drag along the rotation plane. You can drag along one rotation plane at a time.

      While the Rotate tab is open, the gizmo follows you, staying within your view.

    • Use Incremental Rotate to enter a numerical value and fine tune the rotation:

      • To change the magnitude of the increment, under Increment, airtap the + (plus) or - (minus) button.
      • To rotate the model around an axis, apply the increment by airtapping the + (plus) or – (minus) button for that axis.

Reset

Airtap Reset to return to the model's rotation before Model Tools was opened. This reset does not revert changes made to Move, Scale, or Floors.

Lock Position

You can lock the model's current position, which includes changes to rotation, and scale, from the Move, Rotate or Scale tabs, or you can continue making changes with Model Tools and lock from the Model Tools window. For more information, see Lock the model's position.

To lock the model's current position, rotation, and scale:

  1. Tap Lock Position.
  1. Move the anchor to a location on the scan mesh near the location of your model adjustment.

    Important:

    • To use the anchor later in your project, you must be able to physically locate yourself within 10 feet of the anchor.
    • An anchor must be at least 10 feet from any other anchor or any AR marker.
  2. Airtap the anchor to place it.

  3. Airtap Yes to confirm the placement.

    The anchor saves, and if you're online, uploads to the cloud.

  4. In online mode, a white cloud appears beside the lock after it uploads. In offline mode, an orange cloud with a strike through it appears beside a saved anchor.
