Hi Lubenko,
Again, going from the documentation. All my images are already imported into the project. I can understand which images are being utilized for alignment. When you try to add more control points between an image already being used in the alignment and a new image, again adding common control points to tie the new image into the dataset of existing images… then clicking update … those images are still not added. Again, there is very little documentation on this process at all and no tutorials. Primarily the documentation is simply just pointing out definitions for buttons… not defining processes.
Drag and drop images into project? Not sure what you mean by that… the images that are in the project are the only images being used. In response to “Gots” comment “You’ll figure it out” I can tell you that over the last few weeks there have been a few other people to see the dataset who have used the same sets of tools as I have on a daily basis and they don’t like the UI and with far less exposure to RC then myself they same thing that I have been trying to explain… no you’re not going to figure it out with the documentation.
Could you point out in the documentation how the “Bonus” tip you describe would help. In regards to the other answers, being the fact that you can’t see or load what you’ve already calculated… we can use incredibly dense lidar or photogrammetry data in far more simplistic visualzation tools and photogrammetry tools and those other tools, very simplistically I might add.
If it actually is there, please point out in documentation to users why, when we open up a working file what you mean by " however, you can access everything needed" If you don’t have immediate access that is WYSIWYG then that is certainly not the case. I need to see where documentation provides the process of opening a project in process and how to see the data again without having to recalculate a view.
Again, just to confirm my response to your other point about images. All the images from the survey were added to the project at the beginning of the project… the entire survey. If you mean that I can “Drag and Drop” one of the images that is not being used in alignment, look through that camera frustrum and align it somehow inside the 3D view, please explain the process.
