Defining Areas by Slope Segmentation

Segmentation by Slope performs a slope analysis to segment a cloud into several areas.

  1. Select a mesh.
  2. Under Robot, specify the view direction.
    1. Either select a plane.

      The normal to the selected plane becomes the view direction.

    2. Or specify a rotation Angle and select one rotation axis.
      The view direction is rotated along this axis, by the given angle.
  3. Sweep the cloud of points or mesh with the pointer to see the deviation Angle. To update the Angle under Values:
    1. Pick the mesh at a position where the deviation angle fits your need.
    2. Or key-in the required value.
  4. Use the Filter spinner to reduce the number of points of the lines.
  5. Select the Results options.
