Thanks for the reply.. I created a video of m workflow and I also used advice from the post above about turning on the grid and moving the mesh around to eventually get it sorta aligned but even then it comes in at 90 degree's in blender.
So the first part of the video is the Wizard Geyser.. this was just a project I did, added photos, aligned , textured, decimated, exported and then brought into blender, as you can see its at a weird angle and I have to snap the object to the center of the origin then get it aligned so its easier to work with.
The 2nd part is of Fly Geyser which I used the above method of turning on the grid and moving the object into place, however you can see it still comes in as 90 degrees off.. which is much better to fix.
So while this works I have to remember after clean up to rotate it 90 on the translation and hope it comes in properly back into MS.
Also on a big big separate note no matter what I do with drone scanning landscapes have sooooooooo many overlapping faces.. even after decimating, smoothing in MS.. I spend hours cleaning that up.. thoughts? sorry dont mean to distract from the main issue.
IM using the standard version since I cant afford pro
video to my issues..
