Hides all faces with normals in the viewing direction.

Description

This feature allows easier viewing of an interior scan by hiding the points whose normal vectors point towards the camera.

Note: The command is supported only for point clouds for which normal vectors information is available.
  • For structured point cloud data, normal vectors are calculated during point cloud preprocessing. In case a point cloud has been preprocessed on an older BricsCAD version where normals have not yet been calculated, use the POINTCLOUDNORMALS command first.
  • Normal vectors calculation requires a point cloud processed in HSPC format. Both POINTCLOUDHSPC and POINTCLOUDNORMALS system variables need to be set to On (the default value for both system variable is On).
