Build failure due to "recenter" value

[tMarenzi]

Hi,

I'm using sceneform:core:1.4.0and sceneform.ux:sceneform-ux:1.4.0. I've successfully imported a FBX file and I was trying to change its recenter property.

The documentation says that recenter can be set to:

• true
• false
• "root"
• {x: float, y:float, z:float}

I've tried using both "root" or {x: 0.0, y:0.0, z:0.5}, but the project kept failing with the following errors:

• For "root"

Am I missing something?

It looks like you may have an out-of-date version of the Sceneform Tools. Previously, the recenter property was available but only allowed the true/false values. In Sceneform 1.4, it was extended to include "root" and the x/y/z functionality.

Try following the steps on https://developers.google.com/ar/develop/java/sceneform/import-assets to update the plugin.

Hi @jwmcglynn , you were right, I totally forgot to update the Sceneform Tools plugin. Now it is working as expected.

Thanks
