Path: File name of the source, containing the set of points. Available file extensions – "pcg", "pcd" and "asc"  - text file with format (x, y, z) or (color, x, y, z) (cannot be modified)
Width: Specifies the width of the point cloud dataset in the number of points. Width has two meanings: (cannot be modified)


  • it can specify the total number of points in the cloud  for unorganized datasets;
  • it can specify the width (total number of points in a row) of an organized point cloud dataset


Height: Specifies the height of the point cloud dataset in the number of points HEIGHT has two meanings: (cannot be modified)


  • it can specify the height (total number of rows) of an organized point cloud dataset;
  • It is set to 1 for unorganized datasets (thus used to check whether a dataset is organized or not).


Count: Total number of points in the set. Count = Width*Height (cannot be modified)
Pixel size: point size when drawing; 1x1 or 2x2 pixels. Use for GDI draw only.
Density: Use for GDI draw performance, shows each 1/density points.
Show Frame: Shows the bounding frame around the point cloud.
Scale: Sets the scale of the point cloud.Decimal values are accepted.
