Points vs
This command calculates a color map to show the deviations between two objects.
Select the two objects to inspect and launch the command.
The first selected object is the reference object.
The second selected object is the measured object that will be projected on the reference.
The Points here are the measured objects for the inspection.

Description of the command
The dialog box asks which object should be colored.
Force projection direction: If you choose not to force the direction, the software will search the closest point in 3D, else you have to enter a direction for the inspection.
Both sides: Only available if the direction is forced.
Max distance: Enter the threshold distance over which the points are considered as too far away. These points will not be used for the color map. A default value can be computed with the Restore default value button.
Detailed report: This option makes available a table, called Inspected points table, which can be added to the report template. Only available if the number of points is lower than 5001.
Keep only relevant points: This option allows to ignore points whose projections are on the free edges. Only available if the reference object is an opened surface.
Validate the command with OK, or, close the dialog box with Cancel.
Once the color mapping is computed, a special object is created with distance and color information. You can edit the colors by clicking on Edit color. The command Edit Colors is launched.
