Overview

SCENE 2go allows users to view SCENE scan projects without owning the SCENE software. Users can view individual scans in a project and create measurements. 

Getting Started

Starting the App

A SCENE 2go project typically consists of several folders and separate applications to launch the project for a Windows PC or a Mac.

A scan project's control buttons are located at the bottom right of the scan preview image.

  • Click the folder icon S2GoLoadIcon.png to load the project.
  • Click the info icon S2goInfoIcon.pngto view project details.
  • Click the map icon S2goMapIcon2.pngto view the project's location on a map.

You can also customize the items displayed on the project select screen.

  • Click the feature icon S2GoFeatureIcon.png to toggle the featured project.
