OK, here's my theory based on playing around thus far...
I have never been able to really make the Ignore variable work correctly when the scan subject was lying directly on the table. I DO calibrate my block to the table BUT it seems that whenever I increased the Ignor variable to a point that it would actually eliminate the zero plane, I would lose data from the subject.
This could be just my set up and the inaccuracies thereof. My work around was to elivate the scan subject by placing a shim underneath. Obviously the shim was smaller than the subject so it would not be scanned.
You can do some pruning in MachCloud but, it's hard to get that kind of accuracy due to the size/inability to zoom in (as of yet I hope
)
I have been able to do some 'precision' pruning using Rhino but we've already been there. Hopefully Art will be finished with LazyTurn soon and will resume work on the Video Probing package (wink wink-nod nod)
I have another idea that I want to run by you but I'm short on time right now and it should be put under a different topic- TTYL!
