How to use the Point Cloud Manager to organize point cloud projects, regions, and scans.
In ReCap, you can combine point cloud scans into a project, and you can select areas of the combined point cloud and define them as regions. In AutoCAD, the Point Cloud Manager lets you view and manage point cloud projects, regions, and scans that were created in ReCap prior to being imported and attached to a drawing.

Control Visibility of Point Cloud Regions
