Arrgh! How do you exit Match Photo?

[Rose123]

I'm in Match Photo hell. I can't exit it. I've done a search and seen references to canceling it. I can't find a cancel button anywhere, including right-clicking on the screen for a context menu. I even saved and reopened -it's still there. How do you leave the Matrix?

Window > PhotMatch > Done

That was one of the things I tried. Window/Match Photo brought up the Match Photo dialog box, but Done was grayed out, as I hadn't actually done anything yet; I had just mistakenly imported the photo as a match instead of as an image. Then I couldn't leave.

I ended up deleting the file and turning its skb into an skp. Wow, that's a handy feature.

The PM window is always confined to a certain scene (that it creates when you import such a photo). Navigating away from the scene - or deleting the scene - will get you out of PM too.

Gaieus -Sorry for asking, but how, specifically, would I navigate away from, or delete it? Right-clicking gave me few options. About all I could do was close the file.

Navigate: Orbit or Pan would do it in this case.

Just out of curiousity I opened a new file and imported a match photo. I didn't do any work on it, just tried to leave. I orbitted and panned, but it didn't let me out. Neither did clicking on Done (which wasn't grayed out this time). Do these techniques work for you? I must be doing something wrong...

Once you have clicked on done you can delete the scene it has created.
Right click on the little scene tab and delete it.

That did it, thanks!
