Complete the workflow in order
- 01
Inspect the surface before choosing a mode
Identify glossy, dark and featureless regions first because they affect exposure, tracking and whether temporary preparation is needed
- 02
Begin in HD mode for the small object
Use HD mode when detail matters and the object fits its working range; switch to Fast mode only when coverage and tracking matter more than fine sampling
- 03
Select an alignment method deliberately
Use geometry alignment for distinctive shapes, texture when visible color features are reliable, or markers when the shape does not provide enough tracking information
- 04
Capture planned overlapping passes
Keep previously scanned geometry in view while circling the object, then reposition it only after saving a complete first pass
- 05
Align without forcing a match
Reject an alignment that produces doubled edges or shifted holes, and add another clean pass instead of hiding the error during meshing
- 06
Review the mesh against the object
Inspect thin edges, openings and reflective regions, then check a known dimension before exporting for print or CAD work
Do not stop at a green button
Check the result before relying on it
The selected mode matches the object size and required detail
Alignment does not create duplicate edges
Real openings remain open after meshing
The exported model has a checked scale and documented settings
