ReCap Pro currently lacks support for cubical (cube-map) panoramic images, which is the standard image format used by Leica Cyclone and several other scanning platforms to generate panoramic views. This creates a significant workflow limitation, especially when sharing data with clients who rely on ReCap Pro or when reusing panoramic images outside the original software ecosystem. I also want to highlight an important point communicated by Leica on September 1st: “E57 unstructured (single cloud/separate setups) does contain waypoints and pano information. However, ReCap cannot read it due to a limitation in the ReCap SDK. This issue is not solely dependent on Leica, so we are unsure when or if it will be resolved.” This means that even when pano data is correctly embedded according to the E57 specification, ReCap Pro is unable to utilize it. As a result, a large amount of useful metadata becomes inaccessible in Autodesk workflows. We kindly request that Autodesk address these limitations by: Adding support for cube-map panoramic images, or enabling automatic conversion to equirectangular panoramas; and Updating the ReCap SDK so it can properly read and use pano and waypoint information from E57 unstructured files. These enhancements would significantly improve interoperability, reduce manual conversion steps, and make ReCap Pro far more flexible in multi-vendor scanning workflows. Show More

My projects are always very similar; I would like to set up my classification catalog once in the mesh editor  and be able to import it into every new project for assignment, so that I don't have to manually create the individual classes each time. Show More

Hi everyone,   I’ve noticed that when opening a point cloud in ACC (via ReCap), the default point size is set to 3. This results in a rather vague view, which can be confusing for colleagues who are not familiar with working in ReCap or with point clouds. Explaining to each person how to adjust the settings isn’t ideal, as many colleagues have other priorities. Since the available data is intended to make their work easier, I’d like to suggest changing the default point size for ReCap point clouds from terrestrial laser scans to 1 mm.   This adjustment would make the data much clearer and more useful for everyone involved in the process. Thank you for considering this suggestion.   Best regards, Jarne Show More

Recap Photo absolutely needs to have a save feature once photos are imported and ground control assigned. EVERY time I use the program, there is some update, file path, error, right when I get to the end to submit for processing and I have to reimport and reset all the ground control points. It is extremely frustrating. It isn't 10,20 or 30% of the time, it is at least 50% that that happens.  Just a project save to the local drive with the photo list and the ground control placement so you can reopen the project once issues are addressed. Different messages, autodesk drive/fusion/360 errors, etc.  Thank you.  Show More

Please add hover hints of the feature name to features to make it easier to derive what feature needs to be edited. This would be particularly useful since you can't select linework to modify it directly, which you can consider another wish list item. Show More

Currently, ReCap does not support axis-specific scaling, including negative scale factors. To address issues like inverted or swapped axes in point clouds, users can use external tools such as CloudCompare or follow workarounds like flipping axes during import or using advanced settings in ReCap Pro. It would be useful if ReCap supported axis-specific scaling, including negative scale factors. This feature is essential for correcting point clouds that are upside down or have swapped axes due to registration or source data errors. Currently, ReCap only offers basic rotations on fixed planes, which is insufficient for these cases. For example, applying a scale of Z:-1 is a simple and effective way to fix inverted models without relying on external tools like CloudCompare. Adding this capability would improve workflow efficiency and give users better control over model orientation directly within ReCap. Show More

First of all, I am very happy with ReCap and have been using it every day since Beta. There have always been some interface issues that are productivity speed bumps. 1. The Limit Box.  Goal:  Make it work simply from any viewing angle.     I just jumped from version 7.x to 2026.x.  I don't tend to upgrade for this very reason; Cleaning up road pointlcouds involves isolating about 50ish feet of road, looking from the side in non-perspective view, erasing errant data from passing cars, then moving the limit box to isolate the next segment, repeat to the other end of the road.  In 7.x, I could be in a topish view and hover on the limit boxes edges to move both sides of the box further down the road.  In 2026.x, the limit box will only let the user move an edge if that edge is facing the viewport. So now I cannot be in a top view at all.  I have to rotate around to see one side of the box and move that, then rotate around to the other side of the box and move it.  Newer software version = more steps to do the exact same thing.  Urgh! Make the limit box move any edge from any view.  Allow you to rotate it from a top view where you can see clearly the limit box's angle to the scene (never been able to do that).   2. Stop having your interface and scan display go haywire when moving between 3D and Realview.     This has always been sketchy.  And before you ask, you don't need a sample project from me to try it out.  Load up any project with a set of scans and observe the behaviour for yourself.  Many things will go south.  If you have fence set for selection (which you almost always do), if you take a trip to Realview for a scan and back to 3D, you are back to window selection.  That is annoying, but worse is if you have some scans not visible and go between modes, mirror balls for hidden scans may never come back.  The scans themselves may never come back.  I always get a little anxious moving between modes.  I've had AutoDesk techs try to solve this with clearing caches (years ago).  At any rate, put combinations of scans on / off, display and selection modes thru a trip to Realview and see the errant behaviour for yourself.  The goal would be to make the software return exactly where you left off with no interface changes and scan state issues.   Love the local meshing in 2026.x.  Most welcome addition!   Thanks.

Dear Autodesk Team,   Please add a feature in ReCap to recover deleted points from a selected area, not just all deleted points. This would make point cloud editing much more efficient. Thanks, Abdul Razzaq   Show More

Please enhance the IFC template for Revit (just like PointFuse): Show More

Can you add 3D Mouse support in ReCap? Just like InfraWorks, this works very handy navigating around the scan. Show More

I need the ability to be able to Promote more than just one mesh to Revit family in the ReCap plugin for Revit. Right now, I can only promote one at a time and when I go to combine them into a single family, the origins are reset and no way to put the pieces back together again currently.  Thoughts? Am I doing something wrong? If I choose only one like shown below, I'm able to perform Promote to Family: If I choose more than one as shown below, I'm unable to run Promote to Family: It breaks when trying to combine the two after the fact due to reset origins. Because of this, we're stuck with SketchUp models for now. Autodesk, you're so close on this one! Just one more feature and I can totally use this!    Show More

It would be great to have the ability to see coordinates in Realviews on the ACC viewer.   This functionality is possible in Recap and on the viewer in Docs, but not the Drive/ACC viewer.   It's an important feature to many users and was previously requested for the Docs viewer here: XYZ coordinates display in Autodesk Doc Cloud Viewer - Autodesk Community   Show More

Recap can be used without a license to display existing files. But you get an Autodesk account login window that you have to click away if you don't have an Autodesk account.  Revit and Inventor have a viewing mode for such an application. For Recap I would like to have a viewing mode where you can open the files without the Autodesk login window.   Show More

The new classification system in ReCap Pro 2026 is causing significant delays during the saving process — even when classifications are not needed. For users working with clean scan data intended for external modeling or analysis (e.g., Scan-to-BIM workflows), these delays add unnecessary processing time with no benefit. Previous versions (e.g., ReCap 2023) allowed for greater control — either skipping classification entirely or canceling it mid-process. Please consider adding a toggle or checkbox in project settings or preferences to disable classification and bypass "saving classifications" during save/export operations. This would greatly improve performance for power users and professionals who need speed and simplicity over automated classification. Reintroducing this control would be a welcome return of functionality that many relied on in earlier versions. Show More

The default dark grey background in the Mesh Editor can hinder visibility and precision during mesh editing and classification tasks, especially in low-light environments or when working with darker mesh elements. Introduce a background color customization feature within the Mesh Editor, allowing users to select from a range of contrasting colors—similar to the flexibility offered in Autodesk ReCap. This would enhance visual clarity, reduce eye strain, and improve overall user experience during detailed mesh operations. Show More

Have the Feature extraction available in Realview also. This is currently only available in point cloud view, but I would see it having use in the Real View too. Show More

It would be good if we had the option to open the online Recap projects in the Real view by default, or to select the option which view to open by default. Now that we have upload the RCS files (compared to the previous possibility to upload Real Views only), users have been saying that it’s confusing to not get the Realview-view first. Show More
