Use the Point Cloud Properties dialog box to view and edit the point cloud object properties.
Point cloud properties control the basic information about the point cloud object, such as name and description. The properties also display the source files and the external point cloud database that constitute the point cloud, enable you to configure elevation range color schemes, and view the point cloud object statistics.
