      Hi, ive been using sketchup for about 7 years and ive never used the photomatch tool before. I began using it a few weeks ago but ive always run into the same issue with the axis alignment. i line up both sets of red and green alignment bar things but the blue axis never correctly lines up despite the red and green axis being completely correct. Is there a way to manually adjust the blue axis? i assume it has something to do with the FOV of the image distorting the perspective?

      Any help would be appreciated.
      Thanks
      Jack

        It might be several things. Show us a screen shot.

          Or even post the photo itself?

          One thing that is pretty important for good results is that the photo should be uncropped.
          Ideally it should also be undistorted if it shows some lens distortions, because SU does not handle eny distortions. If is heavily distorted it will contain curved lines, which will be impossible to align with the straight red/green lines.
