In this model the seed points created do not touch the ground, they are above or below the surface of the model, they are usually groups of three points only aligned at several places of the model away from each other. Next, there are the seed points…

Hi - I need to compare the design surface with the 3SM. Is it possible to do Surface Tin Comparison in Descartes? I need to create a heat map from the comparison.

This was done using a scanner that I believe is for producing Autodesk compatible format files. I want to import it into Microstation but I am told that to do this I must convert it to a compatible format. I am also told if this is done all the color…

Once you have created and saved a text style in one DGN how to you ensure it is saved back to the library or whatever to ensure that same style is available for future sessions? I am using ContextCapture Editor.

Hi is there a keyboard shortcut for moving forward and backwards in section view? Or how to create a shortcut? Otherwise you have to click to the icon everytime which is annoying!!

Hello, I like to use PAN SCROLL (shift+data) to reduce mouse clicks while looking for objects in a pointcloud. When I use this the pointcloud will only show like 10 of 20% of the points. Is there a setting that microstation will show more points…

请问有contextcapture editor 和Decartes软件试用安装包吗？能否提供一下？

Hi - Is there any tools within Microstation Connect & Descartes to do a comparison of two terrain models? I want to highlight the differences in heights somehow.

Hi, When I open a 3D DWG-file directly or attache this 3D-DWG file as reference in a 3D model in a DGN-file, the DWG file has only XY coördinates. The Z-coördinate is missing. When I do the same in Microstation there is no problem. What could…

Hello, I am trying to attach several .las point clouds in Descartes and I keep getting a message "Convert Failed". This happens if I try to attach one or multiple .las files. I would greatly appreciate any advice, tips, or tricks for making this seemingly…

Using Aeccosim Connect and Descartes I have created a scalable terrain model and draped a large ecw image to it. I am really happy with the result much better than the dcdrape. However when I close the dgn file and open it in Microstation SS4 the…

Hello, I use RealWorks from processing point clouds from Trimble scanners and have been trying to find some way to carry the cloud classification into the exported POD file for use with Descartes and Pointools. RealWorks doesn't allow any formatting…

Hi Everyone I could use some help with a terrain model I am putting together in Descartes for export to Microstation CE and ultimately LumenRT. I am not a civil drafter, and could use some advice in this regard. I have created an STM in Decartes and…

Hello, I am working in Bentley map on a point cloud. I am having an issue with the density of the cloud when I zoom in to see specific features. I need to be able to select objects in the cloud and classify and clip them etc. but when I zoom in the…

I received some point cloud files from my surveyor that are in metric. I'm trying to bring those into drawings are set in US Survey feet. I'd like to be able to scale the point cloud by 1200/3937 to convert it to US Survey Feet, but the scale factor only…
