Hi Kim,

That functionality doesn’t exist yet in PIX4Dmatic but thank you for bringing that up.  
In case you haven’t noticed, there’s a dedicated page for feature requests ([PIX4Dmatic Feature Request - Pix4D Community](https://community.pix4d.com/c/pix4dmatic/pix4dmatic-feature-request/97)) so you can add your suggestions there where the rest of the community can also vote for them. The Product team is keeping track of it.

Best,  
Diana

EDIT: moved it to the right section.

In PIX4Dmapper it was easily possible to export these camera paths, in order to re-import them in another project. This was very helpful for regular mapped construction projects, because then the export videos would have excactly the same spatial camerapath. I’m urgently missing this function in Matic.
