webshare 2 go app

Post by Ronsmith1960 »

Hi All
Very pleased with scene 7 so far. However when i open webshare 2 go i get the following problem with the overview map not opening correctly. All the scans are in the positions they should be in. I have tried creating the data again to with the same results. I have tried loading it onto various laptops and towers with the same results I have had success with less scans. The project i am working on has 114 black and white scans in total. Any help would be appreciated. I have also noticed i am unable to open the project at all on my Mac. Any suggestions on this would help too. thx Ron

Hello Ron,
The square sections would lead me to believe it might be the project point cloud. This is what I would try... If you have created a project point cloud, delete it, then create and upload the webshare data again.
Good Luck,
Cutter Shea

Good morning Cutter

in this case there was no project point cloud produced. However i have now corrected the webshare. What i did was to clean up the history file which was quite large as i manually registered the majority of this project. deleted the original webshare upload and re produce it. And the webshare transfer was spot on.
Thank you and kind regards

Ron

If the same 2go data can be opened on Windows without a problem that’s a strong indication that the 2go data transfer worked.

The online manual gives the following tip:

- If Safari does not start, please instead double-click on the file "ws2go.html" in the "web" folder.

In general, Safari must open the “web/ws2go.html” file. That’s all the “Start_WebShare_2Go_2.0_on_Mac.command” command does.

If that still does not work, you could try to update Safari or to reset it to default settings.

we frequently have had this issue in the past. Our go to method for WS2GO is now:
-complete registration in scene
-export registered FLS
-import registered FLS into fresh project.
-create webshare.
We have been plagued by overview map issues since the day we got WS2GO.

If you are updating to Safari 11, this trick is not working, so maybe a bug in the Webshare mac version?
With Safari 10 no problem, copy URL in Firefox works

Hi Vincent,

it is possible to run WebShare 2Go 2.0 in Safari 11. Please refer to our online manual:
