The Guide Point tool places a construction guide point on a point cloud. The Scan Essentials extension provides a few tools that allow you to mark specific points and distances between points in a point cloud for reference. This is especially useful when attempting to snap to SketchUp geometry that is positioned behind a elements of a point cloud. SketchUp Pick: This mode prioritizes the snapping to SketchUp entities over points in the point cloud. Point Cloud Pick: This mode prioritizes the snapping to points in a point cloud over native SketchUp entities. Use Case: When SketchUp entities are in close proximity with points in a point cloud. The interaction modes set different levels of prioritization when interacting (inferencing and snapping) with SketchUp geometry and the points in the point cloud.ĭisable Point Cloud Snapping: This mode only allows for the detection and interaction with native SketchUp entities. Conditional Blending with Transparency: 50% transparency is applied to points that are close to SketchUp entities.Conditional Blending with Half Resolution: Half of the points are displayed around the SketchUp surface.100% Blending: Point cloud is at 100% transparency (fully visible).75% Blending: Point cloud is at 75% transparency.50% Blending: Point cloud is at 50% transparency.0% Blending: Point cloud is visually removed from the modeling window.These blending modes can assist in the modeling and visualization process. There are multiple visual Blending modes you can set for the loaded point cloud and the model geometry together. Rotate Point Cloud: Like SketchUp’s native Rotate tool, the Scan Essential Rotate tool will rotate the point cloud about a user defined point. Tip: When starting a new SketchUp file with a point cloud, for best results, move the area of the point cloud you will be using closest to the SketchUp origin.
