RibbonBar Icons

The following table displays the icons and their descriptions for the various CloudWorx commands:

Project

Open Project - Opens a saved CloudWorx project file. The project information is saved in the current session file. When you use Open Project, you either associate a previously saved CloudWorx project to this session, or you simply restore a previously closed project using Close Project. See Open Project.

Close Project - Closes the current CloudWorx project. This command disconnects from all point sources and releases the license usage that is previously obtained by Open Project. See Close Project.

ScanWorld Explorer - Perform various tasks relating to the source ScanWorlds for the open ModelSpace View. See ScanWorld Explorer.

Modeling

Fit Pipe - Finds a pipe from the given seed point. See Fit Pipe.

Fit Steel - Derives the reference parameters for placing steel member from point clouds. See Fit Steel.

Flange Work Point - Assists in determining the placement position for flanges and flanged components. See Flange Work Point.

Connect Pipes - Connects the selected pipes (as construction lines) by minimized adjustment. See Connect Pipes.

Enable Point Cloud Selection/Disable Point Cloud Selection - Used to toggle the ability to select the point clouds.

TruSpace

Open TruSpace - Opens the active TruSpace viewer. See TruSpace Tools.

Close TruSpace - Closes the active TruSpace viewer.

Show/Hide TruSpace - Shows or hides the TruSpace viewer without closing it. This is a toggle item.

Open KeyPlan - Opens the KeyPlan associated with the current ModelSpace. See TruSpace Tools.

Close KeyPlan - Closes the active KeyPlan viewer.

Sync Toggles - Starts a modeless dialog box with synchronization settings and the quick limit box size. The dialog is automatically shown when you open TruSpace or KeyPlan. See TruSpace Tools.

Perspective Camera Off - Used to conveniently switch back to parallel projection (Orthographic mode).

Clipping

Clipping Manager - Allows you to create, edit, and delete clipping records in CloudWorx. See Clipping Manager.

Limit Box - Used to define a 3D box beyond which points are not displayed or processed. See Define Limit Box.

Clipping Off - Turns off clipping.

X Negative - Defines a plane whose normal direction is X_, all the points on the opposite side of the plane are clipped out. See Section View.

X Positive - Defines a plane whose normal direction is X+, all the points on the opposite side of the plane are clipped out. See Section View.

Y Negative - Defines a plane whose normal direction is Y_, all the points on the opposite side of the plane are clipped out. See Section View.

Y Positive - Defines a plane whose normal direction is Y+, all the points on the opposite side of the plane are clipped out. See Section View.

Slice X-axis - Defines two parallel planes whose normal direction is X-axis, all the points not between the two planes are clipped out. See Slice.

Slice Y-axis - Defines two parallel planes whose normal direction is Y-axis, all the points not between the two planes are clipped out. See Slice.

Slice Forward - Moves the existing slice by one step (equal to the thickness of the slice) in the positive direction along its axis. See Slice.

Slice Backward - Moves the existing slice by one step (equal to the thickness of the slice) in the negative direction along its axis. See Slice.

Hide Inside - Hides all the points inside of a user-defined fence. See Fence.

Hide Outside - Hides all the points outside of a user-defined fence. See Fence.

Show/Hide Points - Toggles the overall visibility of point clouds.

Point Rendering

Intensity Mapping - Used to display points with intensity mapped colors. See Color Modes.

Color Mapping - Allows for a global override of point cloud coloring. See Color Mapping.

Color From Scanner - Used to display points with colors from scanner when color data is available. See Color Modes.

Increase Point Size - Used to increase the size of the display points. See Color Modes.

Decrease Point Size - Used to decrease the size of the display points. See Color Modes.

Highest Point Density - Displays the image with highest point density. See Point Density Control.

High Point Density - Displays the image with high point density. See Point Density Control.

Medium Point Density - Displays the image with medium point density. See Point Density Control.

Low Point Density - Displays the image with low point density. See Point Density Control.

Least Point Density - Displays the image with least point density. See Point Density Control.
