Feature Class to Augmented Reality question of scale

Howdy Everyone,

I'm playing around with the fmear format and I was hoping to garner some advice. I have a georeferenced feature class of a building, it is just lines and polygons. I set an extruder on each feature and wrote it to fmear, not very complex at all. When I try to see the model in AR, I see its loading x of x layers succesfully but my phone keeps scanning for ground. What I mean by that is, I have a perfect floor and the mesh is not red but I just keep scanning like I can cover my whole office in the white mesh. I expect the building to pop any second but I just keep adding more scanned mesh. I'm beginning to think my AR is gigantic or something with the scale. Do I have to add any extra transformers to change a feature class of a building into a pocket-sized AR feature? I didn't notice any talk of that in the tutorials. Thank you!

You can try to pinch to see if your object is too big.

Hey Stalknecht,

I tried your suggestion and I couldn't get anything to appear. Here is a screenshot of my app. If I were to keep walking around I would just keep mapping the floor withmore white mesh. This might be a silly question, but do you know if moving a georeferenced feature to fmear keeps the reference and I'd have to go to the actual location of the building to see the AR image?

No the object is not georefferenced. You can place it everywhere you want. Can you share the model? You can also try this simple model Kigali Tower.zip To see if it has the same issue. Please unzip it first.
