Unleash the power of Leica Cyclone, CloudWorx, TruView &JetStream for your Reality Capture projects

Hi, I have a question. I am beginning to use Cloudworks for Revit today, and I found something that is disappointing and not productive. In order to use the tools I must open a GLS file. Fine. But then, I cannot move, rotate, unpin, nor delete that model. I want to be able to move and rotate the cloud model to the orientation and elevation that I want before starting to model, but this is not possible. What can I do? The model came at a different elevation and orientation, not what I need.

@@RealityCaptureGuy , I follow the link and I see a table of features by program, and the words "supported" or "not supported". I don't see how that answers my question. So, is moving, rotating, unpinning, deleting, replacing, an GLS model, not supported in Revit? That makes Cloudworks difficult to use.

@@RealityCaptureGuy He has a video about how to align a video with an existing model. My question is how to rotate or move the model before modeling. But, OK, I will try with that method to see if if I can rotate and move the model without already having a model. In most situations, we are just going to start a model after importing the point cloud, aren't we? That is the moment when we need to move the cloud in x, y, z, before beginning to model in Revit. It would be better to get some more direct answers to simple questions instead of "see this", "see that" especially if the reference does not answer the question.
