Clip Point Clouds

Clip tools allow you to crop a specified area from a cloud or several clouds.

Clip area from point cloud in any view. Specify needed viewport to show clipped point cloud.

The work of clip commands changes only the cloud display in the target viewport. No changes occur to the object cloud itself. Other viewports display original cloud.
