calculating vertex colors taking a long time

[dominic]

Hi

I have a few projects at the building mesh stage, seemingly stuck at Calculating vertex colors.  See attached screenshot. CPU seem to be under utilized, and RAM seems sufficient.

Why does this process take so long? Any way to disable this if all I need to do is to generate orthophotos?

thanks

Hello dominic,

It looks like the mesh has been already reconstructed (according to the Workspace pane contents), but there are some visualization issues, since the Shaded view mode is turned on.

I can only suggest to uncheck "Switch to the Model view by default" option in the PhotoScan Preferences to avoid such situation in future, or to use lower values for the polygon count parameter.
