Slices are a way to quickly visualise a section through the point cloud(s). The slice is visualised in the viewing window as a usable definable sized cut:


The slice can be moved by stepping through user defined distances using Step Slice icons.



It is not possible to have multiple slices active at any one time.


Each slice has the following properties: 

  • Enabled - turn slice on/off.
  • Lock - prevent slice from being moved.
  • Colour - select individual colour.
  • Name - meaningful names can be applied.
  • Width - in units of current document.
  • Step - the amount of slice movement.
  • Clipping - points within clipping.
  • Highlight - whether the slice is highlighted at all times.
