It appears to be a spherical distance from the point of view of the camera/viewport. I want to create an animation with a very close flyby of small grouping of utilities within the point cloud, but the points are not visible at the distance I want to view them at. appears to be an issue with both Explore and Examine.</p> <p>I have not tried to approximate the key locations and render it to see if only affects the viewport&nbsp;<br />POD files are created from E57&#39;s which were exported from Cyclone.</p> <p>Data is of a tunnel, and the problem only occurs when the camera gets close any portion of the cloud. I can animate the center of the tunnel with no issue.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
