Autodesk ReCap Pro 2026.1 Update

Enhanced Update Origin Tool

• 2-Point Axis Alignment: Select two points along any axis (X, Y, or Z) to align orientation precisely.
• Guideline Sub-Feature: Choose any two points across the point cloud—without requiring the origin to be one of them—for more flexible alignment.
• Manipulator & Field Sync: Gimbal and orientation values update dynamically after axis alignment.
• Axis Locking Support: Only one axis can be locked during orientation to prevent conflicts.
• Undo/Redo Integration: Supports full undo/redo flow for axis changes.
• History Logging: Each valid axis update is recorded in the history log for traceability.
• UI Enhancements: Helpful tooltips, intuitive cursor changes, and error prevention make the tool more robust
