From the "Transforms" Group box, use the exposed settings to adapt the imported model's units/transformation to Unity units & coordinate system (Left-handed Y-up & no units).



  • Scale: Scale factor applied to the whole assembly. Pixyz technology is by designed in mm. The default value 0.001 allows to match your model with Unity scale system (in meters).


  • Left Handed: Use this setting if the model was designed in a Left Handed environment


  • Flip XY axis: Force the rotation of your model to 90° on X axis.


NOTE                Pixyz automatically read and align your model with Unity Y-up system so using this parameter should be rare. However, if the information couldn't be found by Pixyz, you can then force the flip.


  • Merge Final Level: Use this setting to assemble together unconnected CAD surfaces prior to any data treatment at import (it is a pre-process).

Sometimes, surfaces contained in a file inherited from CAD software are delivered as multiple sub-surfaces disconnected from one another, where they should be unified as a single surface.

If they are not connected together prior to mesh creation by Pixyz, the resulting mesh will be delivered as multiple sub-meshes, and might show gaps where there is supposed to be continuity.

Here is an example of this bad behavior, showing gaps between unconnected faces.


Merge Final Level OFF / ON


  • Hierarchy: Choose one of the available modes to optimize the imported model's hierarchy (also called "Product Structure" in CAD vocabulary)
    • None (default setting): No modification of the hierarchy
    • Clean-up intermediary nodes: Compresses the hierarchy by removing empty nodes, or any node containing only one sub-node.
    • Transfer all objects under root: Simplifies the hierarchy by transferring all imported 3D objects (or GameObjects) under the root node of the imported model.
    • Merge all objects: All objects contained in the original model will be merged together, as one single object.
    • Merge all objects by material: All objects contained in the original model that share the same material will be merged together.
