Here’s a guide to install Revo Scan 5 MetroX MacOS App on your Macbook: Install software on macOS(2023/08/23).mp4 - Google Drive

Is this a separate software or just the update for all?

[theFlow]

Hmm, I just tested. Software is not working with Miraco…

I hope Software will be unified later…

[theFlow]

I see difference in Software…
RevoScan5MetroX Files cannot be opened in RS5(classic)
View is different, see Screenshot.
RS5X seems to be specialized for MetroX
Hopefully it will be merged together later. Maybe it is depending on the current GPU Support issues.

Please make a nativ Apple Silicon version!

[PUTV]

The software is only for use with MetroX

MetroX project can’t be opened in regular RS versions

@SphaeroX separate software only for MetroX

Hi, I downloaded it to get used to it, and looks like it is not handling additional monitors very well:

a) If I open RevoscanX on my main laptop’s screen it goes as usual, but as soon as I move it to my second screen, it freezes and gets unresponsive. In the linked video I tried to click on every botton/menu, but only once (seen in the video) I got a response:

RevoscanX #1

b) I also noticed that if I make the window bigger manually, the resolution remains constant and does not adapt:

RevoscanX #2

c) If I maximize RevoscanX on the second monitor it continues to fail as in the old version (didn’t bother much, as you can always do it manually) I noticed also that the “Simplification” button flickers.

RevoscanX #3

Same when I try to move to 2nd screen as well.
This is what it looks like on a 32" screen.

Is there a reason for this software being separate?
I imagine that for now there are no plans of combining the two versions?

[ttabbal]

My guess is that the MetroX uses a very different method to capture data. So it didn’t make sense to make them use the same program. It also keeps the existing development going for fixes while developing the MetroX software.

Once it stabilizes a bit, I suspect it could be merged in. Not doing it now gives them more flexibility to release updated versions without possibily breaking the older scanners. So they don’t have to test every scanner to release a MetroX fix.

Interestingly, it’s also half the file size of the normal Revoscan 5.

Each scanner uses it’s own software inside RevoScan .
RevoScan itself is just a core

It was nesesery to split it to archive the proper speed and maximal processing .

Once you get MetroX you will better understand that you dealing here with 4 scans in one .

Also it prevent people to use it on outdated laptops and computers that do not support MetroX scanning .
Less job for the technical support .

It was nesesery to do the split , don’t question it , use it , it is much faster as well for all the good reasons .

Thanks for the info! That’s interesting to know about. I did think the performance check on first startup of the MetroX software is a good idea. People generally don’t know that much about their computers, and as it’s all new, we have no idea what to compare it to.

Sounds like a few people have gotten theirs, and shipments are going out, so we will all know soon enough I guess! We’d all like it yesterday, but hopefully soon for everyone waiting.

[Revopoint-Jane]

Hi Roberto, thanks for the feedback, I’ll have the dev team check this out.

[Titon]

It will be interesting to test when i finally get the scanner. Have not received it as of yet. I installed the software but was suprised that a new system with 12 cores and 64 Gigs of memory as average?

I don’t know if this has been reported to you good folks yet or not, if it has then please pardon my duplicity, but I today loaded RevoScan 5.x MetroX onto my Lenovo laptop to see if it would work (it does but…) and I found the same problem that I reported on RevoScan 5.x NOT MetroX - and that is, it exceeds the screen vertically. I captured the program’s display on both my laptop and desktop to demonstrate the issue:

This is on my laptop:

and this is on my desktop:

The areas top and bottom marked by the yellow boxes is the area that is not displayed on the laptopn screen. And RS MetroX is not a scalable window, so I can not make it smaller to fit the laptop screen.

Hope the programming wizards there can fix this easily and quickly!

I have a similar issue in regards to how Revo Scan MetroX and Revo Scan display. It’s due to no implication of using the Systems DPI settings. I had to change in program properties to tell it to use System DPI settings (windows 11). It’s a workaround but should be programmed in… Along with other issues I have noticed.
