Change name of "distance" and "actual distance"

Hi,

When you click on a constraint distance in the 1Ds view, a little window “Selected constraint(s)” pops up. At the bottom of this window are two values, “Distance” and “Actual distance”. I think these terms are misleading, since the “Distance” you enter is actually the REAL (actual) distance, whereas the value called “Actual distance” is the distance calculated by RealityCapture (which hopefully deviates very little from the actual distance).

As such I think it would be better to change the value names as follows:

  • Distance => Actual distance
  • Actual distance => Distance calculated by RealityCapture

Cheers,

Tom

I found this confusing, too.
Maybe better rename to
‘scaling distance’ and ‘distance in model’?

Or ‘measured’ and ‘calculated’ distance.
Sounds logical to me.

Can somebody from RC comment on this?
