Helical "Box Crop" a pointcloud

Is there a way to use a solid model, like a sweep based off a helix, as a "box crop" for removing points from a point cloud?

 

I have a helical hand rail that was LIDAR scanned with it sitting on top of the nosing of a stair. I want to separate the hand rail points into one part file, the stair into another, combine them in an assembly, and then design my posts and pickets between the two.

Hi! Unfortunately, no. There is no workflow in Inventor to edit the attached pointcloud. You may need to look into ReCap.

Many thanks!
