Note

The reader supports files from all Faro scanners.

Faro Scan File Reader Options

    Setting the Faro Scan file reader options

  1. Go to Tools, Global Options, Faro

    The Faro dialog is displayed

  2. Point colors for Faro files can be set to None where the points come through as white, and Intensity and Color where the points use the intensity or color values stored in the file.

    It should be noted that if Point colors is set to a higher level in the Global Options than are available in the file, then it will default to the highest available within the file. So for example if the Global Options are set to color, but only intensities are available in the file, intensities will be shown in the main view.

  3. Click OK to set these options or Cancel to exit the dialog without setting them.
