ContextCapture S3C Composer Main Interface
Models
Edit the list of models included in the scene.
An S3C scene is composed of tiles. You can add or remove tiles to/from the model.
It is possible to add tiles coming from a different production if its coordinate system is compatible.
External OBJ or FBX models can also be included in the scene.
Large OBJ or FBX files may slow
down 3D navigation, because they do not feature level-of-detail.
Use the preview function available in the context menu (right-click) to get a quick preview of a selection of models in ContextCapture Viewer.
Information
Set the scene title and credits information.
Title
A title can be added and will appear at the top right corner of the ContextCapture Viewer interface.
Logo
A logo can be added, it will appear at the bottom right corner of the ContextCapture Viewer interface.
PNG or JPG files are imported into a .a3d file (proprietary format) and copied next to the S3C scene file.
Logo dimensions are limited to 300x300 pixels. Larger images are automatically reduced.
Coordinate system
Check georeferencing and coordinate system.
Model position
Displays the scene coordinate system.
Navigation
Choose navigation mode and motion constraints.
Minimum/Maximum height constraint
Enable a constraint on the height of the camera.
Choose the height mode Relative to ground to set the height constraint relative to the ground.
Maximum oblique viewing angle constraint
Enable a constraint on the angle between the vertical direction and the camera direction.
Navigation mode
Select the default navigation mode.
The navigation mode of the scene can later be changed in ContextCapture Viewer.
Web publishing
Setup a S3C scene for a remote access to a Web server.
Web server
Base URL: Select the base URL on the Web server.
ContextCapture Viewer resolves relative paths of the different tiles specified in the S3C scene to a full URL, using this setting.
Transfer settings
Maximum number of connections.
ContextCapture Viewer downloads the different nodes of the 3D scene using several simultaneous connections, in order to reduce latency. The number of simultaneous connections cannot exceed this setting.
