| Hi Dan, I always hide scans. I usually take more scans than I need, so that there is more data for the dollhouse, etc. Also, sometimes, I just accidentally take an a scan that is too close to another scan. Before I send out the tour, I do my own walk-through and make sure there is a good flow. Last week, I hid scans for an entire room that I wanted for the doll house, but, the homeowner was using for storing things. |

| @DanSmigrod after four years of using camera and knowing the software capabilities I always hide scans. I will scan right in the threshold of the door knowing the software will have an issue stitching the photos. I know these will not be used but knowing it will speed up time on job. If I am doing work for a contractor knowing that I am looking for a good point cloud generated by Matterport I will over scan but the release end products has a lot fewer scans. Also an extremely large open spaces I will over scan turning some off. If I know the agent is only going to use extracted photos from the tour for there MLS listing I will over scan with some scans right next to the wall knowing I am only going to extract the photos then turn them off because these would not make for a good walk thru. | ||

| Sometimes the scan positions are just to complete the dollhouse or if ordering floor plans to complete the plan. This particular project this was being shot for a floor plan take off for a remodel project  |

| Yep I hide scans, I will scan right in front of a mirror so I can collect detail of a sink etc. It's just so the dollhouse looks good. | ||

| I hide the scans that I do just to remove black spots and try to leave only those required for a normal walkthrough. Usually it is about 70-80% of all scans that are left and the rest are hidden. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by leonherbert I do it to too and for all sinks including the one in kitchen. I just do not like that black void inside a sink so in kitchen I usually do two on both sides of the sink to make sure there is no or very little black void left. These two I always do and hide. |

| @photosintheround @ron0987 @GFHoge @lilnitsch @leonherbert @Wingman I could imagine that some Matterport Service Provides keep their pricing down by not hiding scans at all. Hi All, I would love to hear from someone that does not hide scans (and why). For those that prefer someone else to improve the walk around experience by hiding scans, CAPTUR3D offers this service.
