Measurements are organized and stored in Layers.
What is measurable?
You can measure any type of 3D data and 2D plans that are visualized.
What measurement tools are available?

How to store a Measurement?
After the measurement has been finished, a number (Number of currently not stored measurements) appears next to the measurement symbol at the top left corner.
- Open the
Measurement - Click on the
Red Dialog - A popup appears, select
Save changesto store the measurements
How to change a Polyline Measurement?
A measurement that has not been stored:
As long as the Measurment is not stored, the measurement can be adjusted at all points. You can also select other measurements at this point and edit them.
- To add a point on the
Polyline Measurement, click theLeft-Mouse-Buttonon the red line - To remove a point on the
Polyline Measurement, click with theLeft-Mouse-Buttonon the blue point you want to remove - To move one point, hold down the
Left-Mouse-Buttonand move the point to the desired place
A measurement that has already been stored:
- Enter the
Edit-Measurementtool - Click on the desired
Measurementto be modified - Modify and Store
How to delete a Distance Measurement?
- Enter the
Edit-Measurementtool - Click on the
Measurementyou want to delete - The
Measurementbecomes red and is ready to delete - Press the
Deletebutton on your keyboard or click on the bin
or
- Select the desired measurement in the
Navigation Pane - Click the
Right-Mouse-Buttonto get into theContext menu - Press the
Deletebutton
How to move a measurement from one Layer to another?
- Select the measurement you want to move within the
Navigation Pane - Drag and Drop the desired measurement to the other
Layer
or
- Go into
Editmode - Select the measurement you want to move to another
Layer - Select the desired
Layer - Finish and store the measurement
Vertical Measurment
A Vertical Measurement is a measurement of the height difference between two specified points.
How to do a Vertical Measurement?
- Choose the
Verticalmeasurement tool - Click the
Left-Mouse-Buttonto select the point on the top and anywhere on the floor in the model - Select the desired
Layerfrom the list in which the measurement is to be stored - Now you can start the next measurement or store the measurement

Volume Measurement
A Volume Measurement refers to the process of determining the amount of space occupied by a three-dimensional object.
What types of Volume calculation options are available?
Volume calculation based on:
- Best Fit Surface (default calculation type) Creates an optimized triangulated surface from the drawn points.
- Height Calculates the volume above the defined height.
- Point Clouds Difference Calculates the volume between two sets of point clouds.
How to create a Volume Measurement based on Best Fit Surface?
- Choose the
Volumemeasurement tool - Select at least 3 points on the
Point Cloudto indicate the area to be measured - Now you are able to calculate the Volume by pressing the
Calculate Volumebutton (wait for the messageCalculating Volume succeeded) - Press the
Finishbutton
or
- Go to
Storage Locationin the volume menu - Select the desired
Layerfrom the list in which the measurement is to be stored - Click on the
Finishbutton - Now you can start the next measurement or store the measurement
