Title: incomplete point selection in point clouds
Post by: Kiesel on November 23, 2022, 10:49:24 AM
Dear Agisoft team,

I have difficulties with the current selection tool for a long time, especially when I work with deeper point clouds like imported laserscans. The current selection tool seams to be restricted to depth, so I have to select again and again the same area to a deeper and deeper space up to ten times and more and even then I can't be sure that I have selected all points in this area, because when I zoom out some "new" points arise. And in this outzoomed view it is of course more difficult to make a precise selection.  Have I overseen something? I hope for a solution soon for an otherwise nice product.

Best regards,

Kiesel

Hello Kiesel,

Can you please check, if Visible Selection is enabled in the drop-down menu on the Toolbar for the selection tools?

Hello Alexey,

yes indeed  :-\ Visible Selection was ticked on in Selection Tools (even I haven't done that), thanks!

Hello Kiesel,

We will make sure that Visible Selection is unchecked by default in the next version updates.
