How to edit the bounding box in Metashape

- [Instructor] Now that we've gone through the steps of aligning photo sets in Metashape, using both basic and advanced settings, and before we move on to additional processing steps, like building a dense point cloud or building a mesh, it's really helpful to adjust our bounding box so that we can tell Metashape which parts of our point cloud we're interested in and which parts are extraneous. And that way we don't have to waste time processing parts of our model that we don't really care about. I'm working in the exercise file, sample-set-O2-stillLife-alignAdv.psx, which you can find in the exercise folder, sample-set-02-stillLife. So I'm going to mouse over my model view here and just use my middle mouse wheel to zoom out. And I can see here this bounding box. So everything inside of that bounding box, I'm telling Metashape, that's what I want you to process. And I can see here, I've got a bunch of points from the…
