Add Multiple Region Label/Types/Properties

[danny.lewisA9QBW]

Regions are great (when they work), but I was recently in conversation with someone how was trying to create regions in a new scan and I had to explain that points could only belong to one region at a time which got me thinking:

It'd be nice if I could give a collection of points multiple labels/regions.

Eg. I go through and I sort out all the structural members in a scan and label them 'structural', and then I go and label all the walls as 'walls', pipes as 'pipes' etc. Then I go through and sort out the scan by Bays, Bay A1-B6, Bay A7-B10, etc. Then I maybe go and give a region a project number.

For this to work, I would essentially have to have points belong to multiple regions at the same time and then to have a means to group similar types of regions together or filter between multiple region groups. (eg. Show me the Pipes and Structural in Bay A1-B6.

Subject: Improving Point Cloud Workflow Efficiency in Inventor - Request for Enhanced Tools

Dear Forum Members,

I'd like to address a challenge we're facing in our workflow when working with point clouds in Inventor, specifically with the boxcrop function. The issue arises from the limitation that points can only belong to one region, forcing us to repeatedly use boxcrop. Unfortunately, this leads to a slow and inefficient workflow.

Consider the following scenario:

(real picture, no render)

To enhance our productivity and precision, we are seeking additional tools or features that would enable us to efficiently create multiple slides in a point cloud, particularly when dealing with large-scale projects. This improvement would significantly contribute to streamlining our processes.

Please share your insights or any suggestions you may have to help us overcome this challenge and achieve a faster, more precise workflow in handling point clouds within Inventor.

Thank you in advance for your valuable input!
