Hey guys,
I'm wondering if there is any way in Scene to exclude points in certain scans from the project point cloud, without deleting the points?
I have a scan project of a machine enclosure, that includes some outdoor scans taken in color, and some indoor scans in black and white (due to poor lighting) some of the black and white scans were taken in the doorway, and have some points that are inside and some that are outside.. I'd like to exclude the black and white points that are outside, but I'd rather not delete the points, so that in a webshare, the images still look complete...
Any ideas on how to do this?

Re: Scene - Exclude points from project point cloud
There is no way to exclude scans or points from the project point cloud.
You could go in and remove them afterwards by using 3D selections.
If you prefer planar view or quick view to remove unwanted areas,and you would like to keep the exported panorama images intact you could try the following:
Instead of using Scan Points->Delete to remove the points and the image information use
Scan Points -> Filter -> Distance Based and set 0 as min AND max distance.
This will remove all distance information but keep the color information for the points.
Hope this helps!
