Usage

For more information on how to use the command line: How to use the command line.

For advanced users, more functions can be accessed by modifying the .p4d file: .p4d minimum format.

Note: PIX4Dmapper requires the HOME environment variable to be set, and the configuration files (licenses, settings) to be stored at: ~/.config/pix4d. The HOME variable can be checked with the command: echo $HOME in the command line. The ~/ in ~/.config/pix4d refers to the home directory defined by the variable HOME.
