In the Composer Workspace, layer alignment helps maintain spatial consistency across scans and datasets, whether handled automatically or adjusted manually.
Default Behavior
By default, an imported layer retains its original global coordinates.
If the layer is positioned more than 300 meters away from the existing layers, a warning will appear.
In this case, RealityTwin automatically repositions the new layer closer to the other layers for better context.
We strongly recommend using control points during the scanning process to guarantee that your layers align correctly without further adjustment.
Manual Alignment
If a layer is not properly aligned, you can adjust it manually:
Select the Layer you want to align.
From the top-center toolbar, open the Alignment Tool.
A handle will appear in the scene, allowing you to move the layer directly in 3D space.
Use the right-side panel to:
Enter precise numeric values.
Increment position with arrows.
Adjust rotation.

Info
By default, only the Up-axis rotation (Z-axis) is enabled, as this is typically the only correction required.
Select the More option to unlock full rotation control across all axes
