Description of the "Evaluation" View

6.2.4 "Perpendicular Point" Measuring Program

Use the "Perpendicular Point" program to project a point by means of orthogonal projection onto a plane
or line. Proceed as follows:
-
Select the type of projection to be carried out (see below, section "1" and Chap. 3.16.2)
-
If applicable, select the input data for the program (see below, section "2" and Chap. 3.16.3). The
available input data vary depending on the type of projection.
-
If applicable, select measured values that are to be used later for calculation, OK/nOK assessment,
logging and output (see below, section "G" and Chap. 3.16.8).
The measuring program outputs the following measured values:
-
Perpendicular point x: The X coordinate of the perpendicular point
-
Perpendicular point y: The Y coordinate of the perpendicular point
-
Perpendicular point z: The Z coordinate of the perpendicular point

Display Elements and Parameters in the "Perpendicular Point" Program:
A "General" toolbar: Using this toolbar, you can select the data source (see Chapter
save and load parameters and reset selected parameters to default settings (see Chapter 3.17).
B List of active measuring programs: This section displays the active measuring programs from
the "Find objects" and "Combine objects" groups. You can add and remove measuring pro-
grams/measuring program groups (see Chap.
Chap. 3.14) and select an active measuring program for parameterizing and displaying the
measured values.
C Measuring program groups / Tab bar for switching between views: This tab bar allows you
to switch between the four main views (see Chap. 3.2). To the left of the tab bar you find the sec-
tion for adding, removing and selecting measuring program groups (see Chap. 3.15).
D 3D-View: The 3D-View visualizes the 3D data (see Chap. 3.10).
E 3D-View toolbar: Use this toolbar to configure the orientation of the coordinate system in the
3D-View (see Chap. 3.10).
F "Start measurement" button: Click on this button to perform a measuring operation, calculate
the measurement results and display the point cloud and measurement results of the currently
selected measuring program in the 3D-View.
