This command converts a CloudWorx cloud (Read-only) to a standard cloud. Thus, you will be able to use all functions.

Requirements

Load a CloudWorx cloud and launch From CloudWorx.


  1. Set Maximum number of points parameter. A selection of most representative points will be done in the CloudWorx cloud according to this limit.

  2. Note that if you have an active limit plane, only unclipped points will be converted. In this case, a dedicated message will be displayed.

  3. If the conversion takes a lot of memory, a dedicated message will indicate the amount of required memory and the current amount of free memory.

Tip & Trick

  • To extract a part of a CloudWorx cloud, you have to select it using limit plane, slice or box functions before launching the command.

  • The command is also accessible from the Contextual menu.

Notes

  1. For IMP data, the number of kept points should be lower (half of requested points) and the maximum is about 50 million.
