Additional Information

This issue will be addressed in ArcGIS Pro 3.5.

Workaround

  • Work with any projected coordinate system where this issue does not occur. Use the Import 3D Objects tool to import the model by default into the WGS 1984 Web Mercator (Auxiliary Sphere) coordinate system. Move the model and it will not change its texture.
  • Alternatively, when working with WGS 1984 (a geographic coordinate system), for example, the workaround is to use WGS 1984 World Mercator (a projected coordinate system), and it does not have this issue.
