To allow precise demolition based on the object volume:

Select an element in the MicroStation display, and then select the icon below to create a volume in AVEVA Point Cloud Manager.

A window is displayed which gives you the option to confirm if the selected elements represent the desired volume.
Select Yes to pass the selection over to Point Cloud Manager.
Within Point Cloud Manager, select the Demolition Objects button on the Visualisation menu to display the demolition objects. The selected objects are displayed within a translucent overlay which represents the selected demolition clearance. This may be altered through the main Point Cloud Manager options window. You may highlight or hide points which are within this volume prior to demolition.

After the CAD objects have been passed to Point Cloud Manager for demolition, you may add to the volume list:

In the Point Cloud Manager environment, select the Add to Volume List icon to add to the Volume Manager. All Volume Manager functionalities may then be applied to these volumes.

You will then be prompted for a category name to receive the volume.

The volume is displayed in the Volumes Manager, and can then be demolished or used as described in the AVEVA Point Cloud Manager Server section.

You can use this functionality in the Point Cloud Manager environment.

To highlight tentative demolition:

Select a volume around the points to be highlighted.
Right-click on the category within the Volume Manager and select Identify Volumes to highlight the points within the category in pink.

To get an accurate preview of the post-demolition state:

Select a volume around the points to be highlighted.
Right-click on the category within the Volume Manager and select Tentative Demolition.
Select the Demolition Objects button to toggle the object bounding boxes on and off for a clear view of the point cloud data.
