Scale

Access Scale from the Model Tune menu (Model Tools > Model Tune > Scale).

Use Scale to change the size of the model relative to the site. You can scale the model by using the slider or by specifying a percentage per axis.

Note: The model remains positioned on the most recent alignment point as you scale it. If you are not located near the alignment point, the model will move away from you as you reduce the model size.

The Scale tab also includes:

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

Scale the model

  1. In the Model Tune window, select the Scale tab.

  2. To change the scale, use either of the following:

    • To scale equally along all axes, airtap and pinch to grab the slider, and then drag the slider. To use this method, ensure that the link icon is enabled. Using the slider, the model's maximum size is its original size relative to the site (1:1).

    • To scale in increments (increments are percentages):

      • To change the magnitude of the increment, under Increment, airtap the + (plus) or - (minus) button.
      • To apply the increment to an axis, airtap the + (plus) or – (minus) button for that axis. To scale equally along all axes, ensure that the link icon is enabled. To scale along each axes individually, disable link.

Reset

Tap Reset to revert the model to its size before the Model Tunes was opened. This reset does not revert changes made to Move, Rotate, 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.
