Removing people from WebShare views
Sensitive client, does not want people to be in the SCENE Webshare view. Removing the 3d points does not seem to carry over to the web-share view.
Is there a way to blur faces or otherwise make folks unrecognizable??

Re: Removing people from WebShare views
Export images out > photoshop > Reimport is all I can think off. Otherwise use the picture retake option if available on the scanner at the time of scanning.

Re: Removing people from WebShare views
I did not capture photos. So these are all B&W "images" created from the point cloud. I was hoping there was an option with Webshare itself to create a text box.

Re: Removing people from WebShare views
I've had this come up on a large project recently - unfortunately I couldn't find any reliable automatic tools for this, so the images were tediously blurred manually in Gimp. Motivated to never repeat this exercise, I've set about developing a tool to automatically blurr faces using machine learning.
I'll post any updates to this thread.

Re: Removing people from WebShare views
350 scans here, so I can imagine the pain. The odd thing is, with the 130x is that it inverts skin colors! I don't understand that.

Re: Removing people from WebShare views
If its intensity, can you cut the people out in each of the registered scans, export them all then re-import? Then create the webshare.

Re: Removing people from WebShare views
When you create the Webshare, just dig into the root folders and pull up the pano images that are being used. No need to export from Scene. Take those images into any image processor and blur the faces. Yes, it will be manual, but so long as you don't change the format of the image and simply re-save with same name in same location, you can do whatever you want to the image. I tried this a long time ago by swapping some images and it worked so although I haven't tested this particular workflow, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Re: Removing people from WebShare views
I haven't used any of them so can't make any recommendations, but there seem to be quite a few automatic tools for doing this sort of thing on photos. Just one example from my first page of search results:

Re: Removing people from WebShare views
Another (manual) way to do this is using the Quick View or Planar View in SCENE.
Disadvantage: This will make the area black in the image, instead of blurring it.
Advantage: This will also delete the 3D information of the selected area.
Set the values to Min = Max = 0.
After modifying the scans, do another SCENE WebShare Cloud export + upload.

- Open Quick View or Planar View on the scan.
- Create a selection, e.g. using the polygon tool.
- Right click on selection > Scan Points > Delete.
Set the values to Min = Max = 0.
