I was having trouble inserting and using photos in the background. Thank you so much for showing me a good way to do it

This is sooooo helpful! Thanks. BTW, you're really good at teaching.

[@making-things]

I'm not crying, you're crying. This was a very lovely comment. Thank you so much! Who knew Nomad would bring me so much emotional therapy? That was very validating, I really appreciate the kind words. I am a person with a lot of self-doubt, but a stronger desire to help others, so this really made my day.

Great video thx

[@making-things]

Thank you. I appreciate the kind words.

[@mythologiXR]

Great video, you did an amazing job of breaking it down. I just wanted to ask what program you’re using for your screen recording to show your touches and pencil actions?

[@making-things]

Hey myth, thank you. You can turn on the pencil, touch, and mouse indicators in the Display Settings. Just look for the indicator section and enable it.

[@AT-gu8by]

Is the scaling ratio accurate, though ?

[@making-things]

You bring up a great point that I missed. Because I was working with two dimension values that had 4 digits, moving the decimal after the first number was fine, but in a 1600 x 900 image it would be 1.6 x 0.9.

[@AT-gu8by]

@@making-things Thank you.

[@martincanadell1375]

My reference plane disappears when I select another object. Any idea why?

[@making-things]

Any chance I could see a screenshot of when you do see the plain vs when you do not? It would be very helpful if the screenshot showed the Scene menu open. I have two thoughts. If you tapped solo at a some point, it may still be on. Soloing makes non-active items disappear. The other thought would be if you had the check mark off in the Scene.

[@martincanadell1375]

@@making-things Hi and thanks for your response! I rearanged my scene and it's suddenly working. I'll try to recreate the issue to keep track of it. Where can I send you the screenshots?

[@making-things]
