View geolocated project from home

Greetings. I have created a Aero project based at a particular location using geospatial creator. I want to try test it out as I build it, but am not at the location to which it is anchored. The preview gives a reasonable idea, but not the full experience. Is there something I'm missing? 

 

Many thanks in advance from a complete AR newbie.

Helen

You have two options/solutions.

 

First, while editing your project in the Aero desktop app (beta), look at the top right corner, in the Scene panel. Select the Globe icon (Anchor), and in the Properties panel in the bottom right corner, change Anchor type to Horizontal (or even Vertical) surface. When testing it, you can now pick any surface that's flat and fit enough for previewing.

 

Second, in that same bottom right Properties panel with the Anchor type set to Location, you can simply change the location from and to any place near you and later on back again to the location where it's needed.
