Using Crop Tool in Overview Map

Created by John Tapia, Modified on Mon, 28 Aug 2023 at 10:54 AM by Ange Abou

Step 1:

  • Select the region of interest using Cintoo Cloud’s crop tool in the Overview Map or in the 3D View.
  • The Overview Map has a rotation tool that allows you to get the X, Y and Z cropping axis along any region of interest.
  • Select your project or Work Zone.
  • Rotate your scans to make sure that they are orthogonal to the screen axis.
  • Use the X, Y or Z crops and any of the 6 axis views to select your meshing region.
  • The Overview Map rotation tool will not change the scans coordinate system. It is used to facilitate the cropping but this rotation is not persistent.
  • In the 3D View, your crop must be done in 3D Navigation mode, not in Scan Mode.
    • In 3D Navigation mode, all the scans visible in the crop will be selected for the meshing.
    • In Scan Mode, only the selected scan will be used for meshing.
  • Save your crop by clicking the blue "Add" button.

Step 2:

  • Click on "Export" for the selected crop to open the Cintoo COnnect window.
  • Within Cintoo Connect, you can customize the file format, decimation amount, and file storage destination. 

Step 3:

  • Once the settings are complete, click the export button to download the crop to the assigned destination.
