Is this possible? I don't want RBG color values or intensities I just want to change the default pointcloud color from black to something else.
I want to invert my background color and save my eyes but when I do I lose the visibility of the point clouds which are also black...

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn revit 2013 I have used the point cloud (exported from Faro Scene and imported in revit 2013) without any problems. This time (another project) I have deleted some points with Recap of the cloud after edit with faro scene. Now I have imported the *.rcs files into revit 2014 and I have some serious problems..With diffenernt zoom levels some areas of the point cloud disappear. On the picture is only one pointcloud visible. If I click on it, it dont look like one, but it is really only one. And the disappearing areas are rectangles. The same problem is on floor plans.

I use Revit Architecture 2012, Build 20110916_2132(x64) Update Release 2 with Point Cloud Hotfix installed. The point cloud is indexed in Revit from a .pts file.
When we use Point Cloud Feature Extraction for Autodesk® Revit® 2012 in our machine in a central file with the pcg file then there is a Run time error shown in revit. But if we work in a single file then the problem does not occur. How we ovecome this situation?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have spent the last couple of hours researching posts back to 2008 regarding inserting inserting a point cloud into Revit at the correct coordinates. I have two files (DXF and PCG) that are in the same coordinate system. They overlay exactly in AutoCAD. Why I see posts back to 2008 with no resolutions on this same topic? Also explain to me why a file indexed in AutoCAD 2013 is not compatable with Revit 2013.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI will start using imported .pcg files for point clouds and I found an extension that AutoDesk has (point cloud feature extraction for Revit) but it is no longer available. I was wondering if there was anyway that I could get it so I can use it. Point clouds are difficult to work with right now in Revit and it looks like this extension will work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working with a point cloud in 2013. The color comes in when I convert to .pcg and import into Revit. But I can't get the color to display in CAD. I've heard it may be a visual style problem, or a setting in my hardware acceleration, but nothing seems to work.

View 2 Replies View Relatedhow 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've got an issue where changing the color in one area plan scheme (future/left) removes the scheme legend from a completely separate area plan (existing/right). Attached are the screen shots of what I'm describing. This only happens when we change any of the colors in the future/right-hand scheme. All we have to do to get the scheme back on the other area plan is to click on the blank box, edit and reassign the correct scheme (the only one on the list), but had we not caught this, we would have published these without the colors on the one plan, so that's problematic. I'm wondering why--perhaps a glitch or something?
This happens in multiple users' programs.
I have installed SP3 for Max Design. I checked the about box and it says its SP3..The help file says you will find the point cloud command under the Create > Geometry panel. But I see nothing.
How do you get a point cloud in? Have I missed something. I can't open it directly. I can import it, I can reference it and the menu option is missing.
Loading point clouds.When you load the rcs file..I mean, you don't get a message saying it's loading. You don't get a twirling, wait for it, icon.
So then you start zooming in and out. Panning around. Clicking zoom extents.Sometimes you eventually see the point cloud appear. Sometimes you don't. I think I don't when I zoom and pan around too soon.
But I don't know when it's too soon because......NOTHING HAPPENS when you load the file.
I can get my stylised map from Promap into Map3d 2011, and I have tried importing the point cloud data which I have as a esri ascii grid file, it is basically 3 columns of numbers:- for north, east and height.
Unfortunately when I choose to format as nez (when importing) it turns the whole lot round by 90degrees ...
I have tried importing it as enz but no joy, and also in niether case will it align with my map (have tried using coords and not using coords).

I am trying to trace part of my point cloud, which has been aligned according to a new UCS I set. Drawing on the top down view, a poly line works fine out in the black ether or the model space, however when I attempt to trace over the point cloud it shoots way off in the distance.
My node snapping is turned off of course, but this only happens when I click over a part of the point cloud, as if it was snapping to the cloud and getting confused.
When I turn snapping off completely I can click anywhere I want and I'm fine. This suggests to me that it is a snapping issue, although I was under the assumption that "Node" was the only snap setting that related to point clouds.
AutoCAD 2013 point clouds can have a 3D bounding box displayed, and you can grab the grips to edit the box, x, y and z. It's a nice feature.
Using vb.net, will I be able to programmatically move those bounding box points?
I am new to 3DS Max Design 2014.
I am using a dual Xeon machine with 32 GB Ram and a Nvidia Quadro 4000.
I have a 100 point RCP (point cloud) file loaded into my scene. I have successfully set up a camera and a target path (spline) for it to follow through the scene, but when I go to render the production it takes FOREVER to process. For example, it took it 1 hour to process 2 of 700 frames. That's way too long.
I am trying to save $5000 by using Max instead of buying Pointools (which I have used and it does render these cloud animations much faster). I am just not too sure about the gazillion settings, what thye mean, and if they are applicable to point cloud production rendering.
Create an emission and a surface for collision, create 'Spawn on Collision'. So far it works.
Create a second pointcloud with animated ICEtree and enter the pointclouds name in the 'Spawn on Collision' node. The network turns red.
Not only that, the damage can not be undone by reentering 'self' in the 'Spawn on Collision' node. After this, if one unplugs the Bounce off Surface node for example, and tries to plug it back in one gets a Context Mismatch warning.
Is this a bug?Also tried it with 2012.5 Same thing.
I have been searching for a solution to a problem i have been having. I have a point cloud, and I am wanting to TIN it to create a surface.

Clients are asking for point clouds within my work and renderings now. I've been given some of their PC data files for a test. It looks like the only format you can load is RCP & RCS which appears to be the AutoDesk ReCap native format.

How can I rotate my point cloud to have the front view on the top. I want to optimize the surface creation on the lateral surface of a deck and not on the ground (top) surface. I think to rotate 90 degrees on the X or Y axis.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is a way to select specific 3D points out of a point cloud (.pcg). I am new with Autocad and handling of point clouds .
I can think of various things that you might want to do, as in clean up a bit the data or even delete some areas that you are not interested with. additionally, one might want to do some calculations, so selecting points first and the running a list script to use that points can be handy as well.
I'm trying to access the style manager to allow classifying LiDAR point cloud based on elevation. I have been able to attached the point cloud and see it on the drawing. For some reason I can't see the Point Cloud Menu, which I believe should be showing up beside "Express" menu on the top toolbar.
