This is because ArcGIS Pro uses a Z-up coordinate system, while .obj format typically follows a Y-up convention. It will be nice if this tool provides an option to allow the exported .obj format to be in the correct orientation.</P> Fri, 13 Jun 2025 17:51:22 GMT nkiabee 2025-06-13T17:51:22Z https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/to-include-option-in-export-3d-objects-tool-to/idi-p/1616317 <P>ArcGIS Pro's Export 3D Objects tool exports to wavefront .OBJ format in "incorrect orientation".

But I agree that the option to switch to the (also very common) Y-up orientation would be nice (for the non-GIS people). Especially since the implementation would be very simple – just switch the order of the coordinates and that's it.</P><P>So I agree this should be part of the GP tool in Pro <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:">🙂</span></P> Mon, 29 Sep 2025 13:54:52 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/to-include-option-in-export-3d-objects-tool-to/idc-p/1653849#M36303 vojtastic_p 2025-09-29T13:54:52Z
