I'm trying to bring a point cloud into Autocad for reference when creating a model.  The help content I can find for this is here:

 

https://help.autodesk.com/view/ACD/2024/ENU/?guid=GUID-6AA028D2-9F58-490B-B58E-B40F98BE245E

 

However, I don't understand how to complete the first instruction:

"Click Insert tab > Point Cloud panel > Attach."

 

I don't see any "Insert tab".  There is an Insert menu and an Attach item in the toolbar, but neither seem to support Point Cloud files.  

Is this feature supported in the Mac version?  If so, how do I accomplish adding the point cloud file as a reference?

Thanks!

Hi @sgoldstein527 ,

 

>>>I'm trying to bring a point cloud into Autocad for reference when creating a model.  The help content I can find for this is here:

This is AutoCAD for Windows help documentation:

No, this feature is not available in AutoCAD for Mac. You cannot attach and cannot see already attached Point Clouds.

So, the only one solution for the moment is to use Windows version of AutoCAD.
