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

How to open the Context Menu?

By clicking the Right-Mouse-Button in the Navigation Pane on any data, the Context Menu appears.


How to move the content of the navigation panel?

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 / 3D Plans
  • Measurement Layer
  • Annotation Layer

How to set up an Initial Scene?

To set an Initial Scene do the following steps:

  • Activate or deactivate the data you want to display
  • Click the ... button in Navigation Pane
  • Click the Update Initial Scene button

How to change the Initial Scene?

To change and update an Initial Scene, do the following steps:

  • Activate or deactivate the data you want to display
  • Change the camera position to the desired place
  • Click the ... button in the Navigation Pane
  • Click the Update Initial Scene button

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.

How to set a Scene?

To set a Scene, do the following steps:

  • Activate all your data you want to display
  • Click the Right-Mouse-Button in the Navigation Pane where the new scene should be created in

How to change / update a Scene?

To change and update a Scene, do the following steps:

  • Enter 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
  • Click the Right-Mouse-Button on the Scene that should be changed
  • In the Context Menu, click the Update Scene button

How to delete a Scene?

To delete a Scene, do the following steps:

  • Click the Right-Mouse-Button on the Scene to be deleted
  • The Context Menu appears
  • Click the Remove button


Scenes can be shared

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.

How to add a Topology?

To set a Topology do the following steps:

  • Activate the Clipping Box
  • Move and resize the Clipping Box to the desired area (e.g., one floor)
  • Click the Right-Mouse-Button in the Navigation Pane where the new Topology should be created
  • In the Context Menu, select the New Topology entry

How to activate a Topology?

  • Hover the mouse over the desired Topology
  • Left-Click on the Display icon that appears next to the name

How to change / update a Topology?

  • Activate the desired Topology
  • Move and resize the Clipping Box to the desired area
  • Click the Right-Mouse-Button on the Topology to be changed to open the Context Menu
  • Select the Update Spatial Constraint entry

How to delete a Topology?

To delete a Topology, do the following steps:

  • Click the Right-Mouse-Button on the Topology to be deleted
  • The Context Menu appears
  • Select the Remove entry

Show / Hide data in the Viewer

In the Navigation Pane you have the possibility to show or hide certain data.

How to show or hide data?

  • Hover the moues over the desired data
  • An eye appears next to the name
  • To show or hide single data in the Viewer you have to click on the eye with the Left-Mouse-Button
  • All currently visualized data are highlighted in bold

How to show or hide all data at the same time?

  • Display or hide all data by clicking the Right-Mouse-Button on the Root Node to open the Context Menu
  • In the Context Menu you can choose Make All Visible or Make All Invisible by clicking the Left-Mouse-Button
