Hello,

I'm archaeologist and a new user of your software. I try to export bmp file but I've a problem of scale. Scale bar is correct in comparaison to the object, but it's not the real size ? Is it possible to render a file in scale 1:1 ?

Have a good day.

I think you'll need to play with the 'Display > Adjust zoom' tool (see http://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/in ... djust_zoom).

You might have to use your calculator to get the right pixel size to match the printing resolution... (e.g. 1200 dpi = 1200 pixels / inch --> 25.4 / 1200 mm/pixel = 0.0212 mm/pixel.

And you can play with the output image resolution separately in the 'Display > Render image' tool. So you might only need to target 400 dpi and then scale the output image 4 times for instance.

Hello Daniel,

thanks for this explainations.

Have a good day
