Map View

The Map View enables you to visualize the scan data from the Top View (default view) and locked in 2D.

In this view, a station has a point cloud representation, with a Marker (station setup position) and Label (name) . You can:

  • Zoom in (or zoom out) all the displayed stations by stretching or pinching with two fingers.
  • Pan by sliding with one finger.
  • Zoom on a displayed station (or an empty area) by double tapping the station (or an empty area), with a factor of 1.75.

Or tap:

  • A - 3D View to switch from the current view (2D locked view) to an unlocked view. See 3D View.
  • B - Magnify to load more points inside a specific area. See Magnify.
  • C - Zoom Extends to fit the scanning result(s) to the center of the view.
  • D - Views to display the scanning results from Top View, Front View and Right View.
  • E - View Options to expand the options. Tap one of the following:

    to display all hidden stations.

    to hide all displayed stations. Hiding all displayed stations hides all station positions, labels, registration links and all created annotation and precision points (see Points Tool).

    to display the most recent station(s). The number of most recent stations needs to be defined in the Settings > General.

    You can also tap a station position in the view and choose Display Nearest from the dropped-down list.

    to display the stations near the selected one. See Display Nearest. The number of nearest stations has to be defined in the Settings > General.

  • F - Rendering Options to access the options below. Tap:

    to render based on the height information found in the points in the Left Side (or Right Side) view.

    to render the displayed points with one color per group (registration set).

    to hide a 2D Grid over the scan data.

    This Cross defines the origin of the project (0,0,0 as coordinates in the XYZ coordinate system). It is replaced by a 2D Grid when hidden.
