Title: Force Markers to show Local Coordinate XYZ
Post by: olihar on November 12, 2015, 12:37:03 AM

I am really stuck here trying to solve a problem.

What I need to be able to do is I place markers in few places and I want Photoscan to tell me what the current Local Coordinate XYZ are for each point, as in what XYZ does Photoscan assign these points.

All I can see is Photoscan will always leave the fields empty and I can not find a way to ask it to show me these values.

This should be very easy and already available somewhere in the background.

I hope I am clear enough what I am asking about.

No, please do not comment with a statement why would you need this, as yes I do need this. I could maybe do a post about what I am doing if I manage to get this info.

This is extremely important and I needed this yesterday.

Hello olihar,

The estimated fields are blank, since the chunk is not referenced.

You can "reference" it  artificially using the following command typed in the Console pane:

Code: [Select]

PhotoScan.app.document.chunk.transform.matrix = PhotoScan.app.document.chunk.transform.matrixBut the values would be in the arbitrary coordinate system.

arbitrary coordinate is what I need, let me try this right now...

I just tried this and this does not seem to work. Markers are still unchecked and with no values apart from Projections and Error (pix)

Hello olihar,

Have you tried switching to the Estimated values tab?

ahh there we go, when clicking around the update button clears out all the values, and I clicked it before going to estimated values tab.

Now for testing.

It even exports, so great.

Thanks.
