General

In the Navigation Pane you can organize and manage data. To avoid confusion, it is recommended to build a proper structure.


Within the Navigation Pane you can organize and create:

  • Initial Scene
  • Folders
  • Topology
  • Scene
  • Layer
    • Measurement Layer
    • Annotation Layer

Open Context Menu

The Context Menu appears by right-clicking on any data in the Navigation Pane.

Move content within the Navigation Pane

The content can be moved and organized as required using Drag and Drop.

Initial Scene

What is the Initial Scene?

The Initial Scene is the first view on your data when opening the project.

The following data can be displayed in the Initial Scene:

  • Point Clouds
  • 2D Plans / 3D Models
  • Measurement Layer
  • Annotation Layer

Set up an Initial Scene

To set an Initial Scene, follow these steps:

  • Activate or deactivate the data you want to display
  • Click on the "ellipsis (...)" button in Navigation Pane
  • Select the "Update Initial Scene" option

Change the Initial Scene

To change and update an Initial Scene, follow these steps:

  • Activate or deactivate the data you want to display
  • Change the camera position to the desired place
  • Click on the "ellipsis (...)" button in Navigation Pane
  • Select the "Update Initial Scene" option

Return to the Initial Scene view

To return to the initial scene view or camera position, follow these steps:

  • Click on the "ellipsis (...)" button in Navigation Pane
  • Select the "Load Initial Scene" option

Scene

What is a Scene?

A Scene can be thought of as a point of interest in place and in time.

A Scene is a group of data that describes a specific state of the viewer. A state includes everything that has an influence on what the user sees at the moment. Examples are camera position, camera orientation, point cloud colorization, or which data is currently visible.

The Scene is also ideal for visualizing construction progress. You can create a scene for scans of day X and another one for scans of day Y.

Set a Scene

  • Activate all your data you want to display
  • Right-click in the Navigation Pane where you want to create the new scene


Change / update a Scene

  • Enable the scene to be changed via the eye icon
  • Activate or deactivate data you want to display
  • Change the camera position to the desired place
  • Right-click on the scene you wish to modify
  • Click on the "Update Scene" button from the context menu


Delete a Scene

  • Right-click on the Scene you wish to delete
  • The Context Menu appears
  • Click the "Remove" button

Share a Scene

Scenes can be shared, learn more about the Share Function by clicking here.

Topology

What is a Topology?

Topologies can be used to define specific regions in space based on spatial constraints. For example, a Clipping Box is a simple spatial constraint that uses the six faces of a cuboid to define the three-dimensional region of a topology. Each topology can be split up again into finer subdivisions, giving one the flexibility to use as many hierarchical levels as required to model a specific case.

All topologies of a scan project are stored within the same Navigation Pane.

Add a Topology

  • Activate the Clipping Box
  • Move and resize the Clipping Box to the desired area (e.g., one floor)
  • Right-click in the Navigation Pane where you want to create the new topology
  • Select the "New Topology" option from the context menu

Activate a Topology

  • Hover the mouse cursor over the desired topology
  • Click on the "Display" icon that appears next to the name

Change / update a Topology

  • Activate the desired topology
  • Move and resize the Clipping Box to the desired area
  • To change the topology, right-click on it to open the context menu
  • Choose the "Update Topology" option


Delete a Topology

  • Right-click on the topology to be deleted
  • The context menu appears
  • Select "Remove"

Show / Hide data in the Viewer

In the Navigation Pane, you can choose to show or hide certain data.

Show or hide data

  • Hover the moues over the desired data
  • An eye appears next to the name
  • Click on the eye icon to show or hide individual data
  • All currently visualized data are highlighted in bold


Show or hide all data at the same time

  • To show or hide all data, right-click on the root node to open the context menu
  • Within the context menu, you can select "Make All Visible" or "Make All Invisible" by clicking the Left-Mouse-Button
