What is the best way to capture flat item dimensions?
xDIM:
- Navigate to the correct measurement method on the bottom left of your screen.
- For irregular item measurements, you will want to take a top-down approach.
- Position your tablet over the object and you will start to see the lines begin to circle around the object you are measuring.
- In 2 to 6-seconds, you will have your completed capture of accurate measurements.
- Note: If multiple items are too closely together, xDIM may try to cluster those as one. Make sure the item you are measuring is separated from others.
