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"
