Trimming Matterport Dollhouse Issue: “wall scatter”7311

Networker private msg quote post Address this user
Good morning again! Can someone be kind enough to tell me how to get rid of this "wall scatter" behind the restaurant Dollhouse? I have attached a screenshot from the original trimming prior to uploading the model. Thanks in advance.

Did you upload yet? It goes away after processing. Also make sure you’re not on top of the walls with the trim marker.

Post the link to the processed model! Good luck.

Try marking the wall as a mirror instead of trimming.

@3dvuz Yes, I uploaded it. Is there a way to retrim it and get rid of the wall? @immersivespaces and if, if it's possible I will mark the scatter as a mirror on this next upload to see if that cuts it out. Thanks to you both for the advice.

Well--Team WGAN, unfortunately, I have no good news to report. I re-trimmed and re-uploaded and I got the EXACT same result. Even marking the wall like a mirror. Any other suggestions? The client is not too happy.

@Networker

Can you post a link to the model? I could imagine that the trim might need to be done on a different floor.

The trim markers are on the wrong side. The scatter is coming from the other wall.

I'd recommend marking as a window, not a mirror.

I'm curious as to why @JonJ believes it's on the wrong side. I'm not saying he's wrong - I just want to know what he's seeing that I'm not seeing

Posting the link to the space would help 100%

WOW! Thanks to @DanSmigrod, @Metroplex360, & JonJ (heavyweights) for weighing in! The link to the space is-> clickable text. I will go back in and try to block the scatter using a "window" and see what happens. Stay tuned.

Here are the new trimming and pre-upload screenshots. I will post the results. @DanSmigrod there was only one floor Dan. I looked to see if it had created a second floor but it did not.

Hi All,

The scatter is coming from the side of the model above the rock wall. Right now your trim markers are on the opposite wall. As I said before, you want to add trim markers to the side with the rock wall. You can either do this with the trim tool and/or the window marking tool. When I trim a model, I always trim around the entire model so that I eliminate any chance of missing some scatter. In this case the scatter that resulted in the final model is not visible in the mini-map preview.

To improve your model, I would also recommend moving your markings a bit further away from the wall so that you don't cut off any of the desired part of model in the final rendering.

Hope this helps,
Jon J

@JonJ, Thanks for the advice. I tried the above--again with no luck. I am wondering if you might be kind enough to pull down one of the diagrams and show me exactly what your solution would be with Photoshop? I am asking because I am not sure where you are talking about placing the "remove" marker. Thanks in advance. Here is the screenshot of the last upload.

@JonJ, @metroPlex360, @DanSmigrod You guys are awesome dudes! I used a hybrid solution marked it as a window and trimmed it. Viola! Poof! Gone with the wind. My client will be sooo happy. I had previously (and erroneously) thought there was nothing which could be done as it did not appear on the map.

That was before I came to my senses and remembered the sheer number of generous Matterport geniuses willing to step up and offer a hand on WGAN (thanks Dan)!

@JonJ

How did you figure this out?

It seemed counter-intuitive regarding where the "scatter" was originating from.

@Networker

On behalf of WGAN Forum Members, thank you for your kind words.

Best,

Dan
