Not dealing with point clouds, I have to ask their nature. Is a point cloud just a bunch of independent Point entities, or is it some kind of object type of its own? If the former, there are routines around to find the overall extents of a selection of multiple objects, and the Y-coordinate difference in the extremes would tell you the top-to-bottom extent of all the Points. If the latter, is it an object type from which one could get the bounding box? If so, again, the Y-coordinate difference between the minimum and maximum corners of the bounding box would tell you.

Hi,

please find a video that shows how to use 3D-ObjectSnaps with it's point-cloud options!

Hi,

best would be a block, with an attribute + a solid hatch behind the attribute (or you use a multiline attribute, that can have an automatic background mask).
