Selecting Objects in the 3D Window

Two selection modes are available for selecting objects in the 3D Window: Global Selection and List Selection. Use Global Selection to select whichever PhotoMesh item you point to in the 3D Window. Use List Selection to limit your selection to only the item type of the list currently open, e.g., if the tile list is open, and you click in the 3D Window on a camera icon, the tile below it is selected.

To change the selection mode:

§  On the Home tab, in the Select group, toggle on Global Selection or List Selection.

Dragging and Dropping Files in PhotoMesh

PhotoMesh’s drag and drop capability supports project files, all photo and LiDAR formats, control point lists, and video files. A single or multiple files can be dragged and dropped anywhere on the 3D Window.
