Description

0

The legacy point cloud must be manually regenerated when the view changes. When this value is 0, the POINTCLOUDRTDENSITY value has no impact on the number of points displayed while zooming, panning, or orbiting in real time.

The legacy point cloud is automatically regenerated after a view change.

For speedier performance, keep this value as 0 while editing a drawing with a large legacy point cloud.
