Control Section

The Control section of the action bar provides commands for covering the basis of a control process.

This page discusses:

Align using the Robot
See Flyout for Aligning Clouds.
Translate
See Flyout for Performing Transformations on Clouds.
3D Primitive Recognition
Recognizes 3D primitives (basic shapes) on meshes or clouds of points.
See Creating 3D Primitives.
Planar Sections
Creates planar sections by cutting a cloud of point or a mesh by planes.
See Creating Planar Sections.
Sketch from Scan (Legacy)
Retrieves basic primitives from planar scans. The primitives are then created as sketches.
See Creating a Sketch from Scan (Legacy).
Deviation Analysis
Analyzes the deviation between reference objects and objects to measure.
See Performing a Deviation Analysis.
Geometric Tolerances Checker
Checks whether the selected mesh complies with the geometric tolerances.
See Checking Geometric Tolerances.
Annotation Set
Creates an annotation set under a deviation check.
See Creating Annotation Sets.
Annotation
Creates an annotation under the selected annotation set of a deviation analysis.
See Creating Annotation Sets.
Deviation Report
Creates a deviation report, based on deviation analysis results and deviation annotations.
See Creating Deviation Reports.

Flyout for Aligning Clouds

Fast Alignment
Aligns clouds with reference elements (clouds, meshes, surfaces or points).
See Using Fast Alignment.
Align using the Robot
Aligns cloud of points roughly, using the Robot.
See Aligning using the Robot.
Align by Best Fit
Aligns clouds with reference elements (clouds, meshes, surfaces or points) by best fit alignment method.
See Aligning by Best Fit.
Align with Constraints
Aligns clouds of points using a selection of constraints.
See Aligning Clouds with Constraints.
Align with RPS
Aligns clouds of points using a selection of Reference Points System (RPS).
See Aligning with RPS.
Align using Spheres
Uses sphere recognition to reposition clouds of points. s
See Aligning Clouds Using Spheres.
Align with Previous Transformation
Uses the last previously computed transformation to align clouds of points.
See Aligning a Cloud Using the Previous Transformation.
