During scanning, the Metaroom Scan App automatically recognizes and includes room objects in the 3D model — such as furniture (sofas, tables, chairs), windows, and doors.
In the Metaroom Workspace, you can hide these objects from the 3D view or exclude them entirely from exports.
How do I hide room assets in the 3D room model view?
Hiding an object only affects how it appears in the Metaroom Workspace view — it does not remove it from the model or export files. Follow these steps:
- Open your scanned space in the Metaroom Workspace.
- In the Model Tree on the left sidebar, locate the object you want to hide.
- Click the eye icon next to the object’s name to hide it. A crossed-out eye icon confirms it is hidden.
- To make it visible again, click the eye icon once more.
- Click Save in the top toolbar to save your visibility settings. The next time you open the scene, hidden objects will remain hidden.
Please note: to exclude room furniture from an export file, use the Room Geometry Only option in the export settings — see the section below.
How can I exclude room furniture from an export file?
To export a clean 3D model without furniture or added 3D objects, adjust the Level of Detail setting during export. Follow these steps:
- Open your scanned space in the Metaroom Workspace.
- Click the Export button in the top toolbar.
- Choose your preferred export format.
- In the Level of Detail section, select:
- Room Geometry Only — exports only the structure of the space, excluding all recognized furniture and manually created 3D objects.
- Room Geometry and Custom Objects – exports only the structure of the space and manually created 3D objects.
- Complete Model — exports the full model including furniture and all 3D elements.
- Click Export.
