I'd like to hear an even more in depth explanation on this.

Hi, voxels then are just stacked cubes/3D squares and the cubes are made up of 8 polygons that has to be small? A cube may of 8 quad polygons is technically a voxel? God bless.

I tried to edit a photogrammetry model in shapelab, and read why it does not work in the FAQ, understanding the surface is not like voxels, and it broke at the seams predictably. Maybe a future tool would a a poly/voxel convert tool if that doesn't crash things, to capture things then be able to polish and add details would be incredible. This is my fav VR sculpt tool.

We are glad that you enjoy Shapelab! 😊 However, please note that Shapelab is able to handle photogrammetry models. We are not sure what the issue could be with your model ‘breaking at the seam’, but we would love to look into it. Could you send us an email at [e-mail] explaining what happened when importing/editing the model in more detail? If you could also send us the model itself, it would be very useful! Thanks, Leopoly team
