It’s been a year now, is there any news on this? The likes on the post speak for themselves, customers want this feature.

Hi @SphaeroX

Our dev team is planning this feature, and the current situation suggests that it may be implemented in the second quarter of next year. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

Agreed @Revopoint-Cassie did the team successfully implement this feature yet

24

Sorry, not yet. After it is finished, we will announce it.

This is an essential feature for any 3D scanning software — really hope it gets added soon!

Yes that would be great , just remember not all software uses the same coordinate systems so for one the output may be ideal but not for the other . It is not universal for all software .

What do you mean with software not using the same coordinate system? Granted, there could be a difference of whether z or y is ”up”, but rotating/flipping in 90 degree angles is trivial in any sw I use. The challenge is to align a surface with any axis, the rest is easy. But perhaps there is software that does not use an orthogonal coordinate system, is that what you mean?

That’s what I mean.

Ouch, please make it happen! TUT

Id like to see this

Nessuna novità da parte del team?

Still waiting, it’s a pain trying to align in fusion.

Hi @river65 , in main time try Cloud Compare what is a free software , it will allow you not only change the scan origin but also manually align it or manually merge multiple scan with or with registration .

34

any tutorials on how to align to xyz coordinate system using cloud compare?

Are there any news on this topic? I was thinking about getting the MetroY, but if this feature still isn’t implemented after 2 years, I’m not sure if this is the right product for me.

Hi @FPrefect42

That is a completely fair assessment. I know this has been a long-standing request, and I’ll be honest—R&D haven’t been able to prioritize it yet due to other infrastructure focuses.

I always recommend purchasing MetroY based on what it can do today, not what it might do in the future. If this feature is a deal breaker for your workflow, I completely understand if you need to look for a solution that already has it in place.

Best wishes

sad… pretty fundamental…
