VRML export can select board color and set size 1:1?

Hello All

I’ve now exported a VRML file for rendering a 3D model of the original PCB in Kicad.

I’m having trouble selecting the PCB color and the model size is significantly oversized.

Is there a way to fix this?

One of the shortcomings of VRML is that it uses “arbitrary units”. I once read somewhere what the size of a “VRML unit” is in KiCad (or FreeCAD) but because it arbitrary, it’s a number that does not stick in my mind, and it’s enough reason (for me personally) to shun the whole format.

The number is not arbitrary, it is a conversion between inch and m:
