Point Cloud Presentation

Ok, What is the trick to this? Nothing seems to change when I change the presentation style.  I am currently working with STM.dgn which is the example drawing for the eLearn training Bentley Descartes for 3D modeling..point cloud is white, no matter which presentation style i choose.

  • Hello,

    It looks like you were making changes to the presentation in the Point Cloud Presentation dialog.  Yes these changes do need to be applied to the view.  This dialog is where you can change what colors classifications display, as well as many other changes.

    If you simply want to change which presentation style is being used in the view you can change it in the View Attributes dialog shown below.  This change happens immediately in the view.

    Regards,

    Jason Gingrich

  • This is a Pain in the ...  if you want to change the classification and have files with lots of  models with large PODs attached it takes absolute ages to go into each models and then all to all views.

    In Batch Process I  tried using

    poincloud presentation ; selview all  and it goes thru the models changing the presentation it seems but when you open the models the old style is back.

    Both the Basic and mvba recorders   do no record any keyins or commands to apply the active presentation to all views.

    So what is the secret/hidden command to make applying the current classification to all views?

    Any one in Bentley aware of  the functionality?
