AutoCAD Inventor :: Unable To View Point Clouds?
Jan 27, 2012
We'll get a inventor model of the huge cover . And we need to do a cross check old model to new scanned point clouds.
Inventor is not able to view point clouds, so the idea is to import inventor model to autocad . Do a cross check to point cloud notice the changes and put them into the inventor model . Move the flanges in the correct position.
This is the client mail.
iam not understanding this mail. Presently iam using autodesk inventor 2012 .
what is point clouds?
i know little bit of point clouds.
how to start this work. Client is provided scan files.

I just noticed that 2013 can import point clouds; this is great news.
There is precious little documentation on this feature. I can happily index and attach my points (the scaling seems off...even though I set it to 1.0...) but I cannot seem to do much with the points beyond this. Obviously, I would like to make a surface but the Surface tools don't seem to operate on these points. There were no options during import, unlike other point imports, to make them show as points, splines, surface.
What can I do with these data?

what the file size limit is for importing point clouds into Inventor? Or is that a how long is a piece of string question that depends on computer ability?

how to match up certain points. I have imported 2 point clouds and have tried to use the 'align' tool to specify three points from the source object (cloud) and three points from the destination object (cloud). When doing this, it does not properly align them. The point cloud makes it difficult to select the exact point I would like to align, since there may not be a point at that exact location, but close to it. Does AutoCAD require the points in alignment to match up perfectly or is it capable of doing a best fit?
Also, is AutoCAD capable of creating a solid 3D piece from the point cloud? I would like to take all of my points and make a smooth object.

I can't seem to get this working in 2011... the bounding box for the point cloud is all that shows up. How to get a good 3dDWF or 3D PDF of a point cloud out of c3D?

URL....Until Kate fixes the link to Lynn's page, here it is: URL....I suspect LT will not get Point Clouds or 3D features (PressPull, Surface Curve Extraction, Model anything), but you got to love the Strike-Through Text ability. New DWG format? Kate will reveal all soon enough.
Interestingly, AutoCAD2013 details are out in Japan (if you are bilingual) URL....

We are using AutoCAD 2014 and one of the biggest selling points was its improved point cloud functionality. I have been inserting a point cloud with RGB color but when it comes in, I get no color. The preview window show it in color, the details say YES that color is attached but all I get is a plain white point cloud. The Visualization panel is lit up and I can change from scan color to intensity and back. It looks like it is working but I get zero change to my cloud.

I would like to convert many xyz files, representing point clouds, to the isd files. I have found some dll's dealing with point clouds' objects (see bellow), however I could not find any supporting documentation.
Some sample code in VB.NET or direct me to some useful resources?
These dll's are, in my opinion, related to Point Clouds:
AcDbPointCloudDbxRes.dll
AcDbPointCloudRes.dll
AcMapPointCloudRes.dll
AcRevCloudRes.dll
AeccPointCloudEnu.dll
AeccUiMgrPointCloudEnu.dll
AeccUiPointCloudEnu.dll
Autodesk.Map.PointCloud.UI.dll
ManagedMapPointCloud.dll

I have a small app to create, related to point clouds.
I know VisualLISP pretty well, definitely well enough to accomplish the task.but...I can't figure out how to retrieve information on the point cloud's clipbox using lisp.
I know a little VB.NET; I took a one-semester class at the JC, two years ago. It's going to take time for me to get ramped up enough with VB to do this job, so I don't really want you to tell me the only way to get to the clipbox is through vb.
way to retrieve and modify a point cloud's clipbox with VisualLISP?

I am lucky enough to have access to a developer version of the recent Xbox One Kinect hardware. Naturally there is currently no software on the market that allows point clouds/mesh's to be obtained using the scanner within the Kinect.
I have seen that AutoCAD has been utilised to achieve this and wondered if there is any literature or instructions as to how this is achieved? Is there a plugin required that is able to control the Kinect V2 and output point cloud data from scans?

I am making revision clouds on some record drawings. They come out all peachy, but when I save the file and reopen it, all of the wonderful little clouds change to jagged straight lines.

I need to convert a number of raw point clouds into PCG files for insertion into Revit. I'd like to do this ahead of time, and preferably without having to open and insert into Revit. I know Revit uses adpointcloudindexer.exe to index the raw file formats, but was unsuccessful at trying to launch it by itself. If this can be used as a standalone convertor, possibly by combining the exe with a switch and a file location?

I need to find a way how to insert a point or a * on the center point of a hole and put it on a different layer. The reason for this is - I am a CAD tech for a welding shop and we cut parts out of steel and we use the dxf file format for our plasma table to cut parts. For example : if i have a 1 inch thick plate and want to put a 3/4'' hole in the plate the hole will be distorted because the hole is smaller than the material thickness. For these situation we can use the plasma table to burn a point or a dot on the center point of the hole. But to do this the point or dot must be on a different layer in the dxf.

Survey database is open for edit, drawing displays survey points and figures from imported survey data files. When I try to use _AeccCreatePointManual, after selecting a location, entering a description and elevation, no point is created. The command appears to complete and gives no error but no point shows up in the drawing or survey database. Default layer is <use current>.

Im currently trying to set up a 2 point perspective view of a model ive recently designed.
I have an image set as the background and i would like to align the model in perspective to the image.
My issue is Dview and free orbit and giving me any kind of reasonable perspective.
Is there any other methods i might be able to try to improve the results ?

I have a problem with the management of the cloud of points with autocad 2013. and precisely:
- What is my need: using orthogonal views create section planes of small portions of a cloud to be scanned.
- What is my problem: When I align a view, the bounding box is not aligned to the same, so this involves a wrong cut plane to create the section

While trying to troubleshoot another user's problem, I discovered that I can't open the point creation tools on my computer. I can create the points by picking the appropriate type of point I want to create under the menu, but I can' change any of the point creation tools options.
Nothing happend when I click on points->create points.on the menu.
Nothing happens when I click on points->create points on hte ribbon.
I can create points by clicking on points->create points miscellaneous->manual either the ribbon or the menus.
It's like the command to open the Create Points Tools is somehow disabled on my computer.

Project objects to profile view... got it. No problems selecting individual survey points or survey figures and projecting to profile view. Is there a way to project a entire point group to a profile. I have a point group created for the large number of points to be projected. Next I right click on the point group and click "select'. Then go to Project objects to profile view. Nothing...
This process works for the survey figures, but not the point groups! In prospector tab go to survey > figures then select CTRL + each figure to project then VIOLA' the whole group of figures are projected.
Is this limited to graphical selections only? If so, is there a workaround to generate a graphical selection set from the point group.

I have a drawing with a bunch of layers that cannot be deleted since they are nested in block definitions. However, the blocks are not in use and cannot be purged. I think it is because they are referenced for point styles, that are also not in use. Is there a way to delete the point style in order to clear these layers and blocks?

Say I'm projecting some 3D polylines to a profile view I have, and the 3D polylines cross the alignment defining the profile view. Is there a way to format the projections such that the point of intersection is identified, and that the points will be updated if I change either the alignment or the 3D polylines?

For some strange reason when I got to work this morning I was unable to view items as I draw. I can see lines as I draw once I specify the first point with ortho on or off, but I can't see shapes (dimensions, circles, rectangles, ellipse, or box) while I draw. Once I select the second point the object does appear but a setting has changed and I can't figure out how to get it back to normal.

Is there a way to get sheet number of the base view for the Selected Child view (Mainly for Section. Detail Views). Because the Section views, Detail views (initially they would have created on the same sheet where the parent is, then they moved to different sheets). So we place the parent view sheet number.
