Morning,

I'm looking at a way to align 2 meshes together. I have tried the align to part and did a trial where I simply converted a part to a mesh and fetched it in and the part and aligned them together. That works fine.

I have 2 scans which I would like to align, they over lap by a good amount, but each time I try and align them with hint points or whatever I get a scaling error. Is there a tutorial showing how to use this tool?

Cheers

Interestingly enough, I decided to import the same scan twice, and see if I could get that to align, still got a scaling error. So I started working through running a mesh repair and all this.
Repaired mesh no. 1 it said it repaired x amount of facets and all this. Repaired mesh no. 2, and it repaired a completely different amount of facets? How is this possible if its the same file brought in twice?
