Here are described all the methods of CloudCompare in the order they appear in the menu.
(version: 2.14.alpha)
File
- Open
- Open Recent... (open recent files)
- Save
- Global Shift settings
- Primitive factory
- 3D mouse > Enable
- Gamepad > Enable
- Close all (close all loaded entities)
- Quit (should be pretty clear!)
Edit
- Clone
- Merge
- Subsample
- Apply transformation
- Multiply/Scale
- Translate/Rotate
- Segment
- Crop
- Edit global shift and scale
- Toggle (recursive) submenu
- Delete (delete the selected entities)
Colors
- Set unique
- From Scalar fields
- Colorize
- Levels
- Height ramp
- Convert to grey scale
- Convert to scalar field
- Interpolate from another entity
- Enhance with intensities
- Bilateral filter
- Gaussian filter
- Mean filter
- Median filter
- Clear (remove the color field of the selected entities)
Normals
- Compute
- Invert
- Orient normals > With Minimum Spanning Tree
- Orient normals > with Fast Marching
- Convert to > HSV colors
- Convert to > Dip & Dip direction SFs
- Export normals to SF(s)
- Set SF(s) as normal
- Clear (remove normals from the selected entities)
Octree
Grid
Cloud
Mesh
- Delaunay 2.5D (XY plane)
- Delaunay 2.5D (best fit plane)
- Surface between two polylines
- Mesh scan grids
- Convert texture/material to RGB
- Sample points
- Smooth (Laplacian)
- Subdivide
- Flip triangles
- Measure surface
- Measure volume
- Flag vertices by type
Mesh \ Scalar field
Polyline
Plane
Sensors
Sensors \ TLS/GBL 
Sensors \ Camera Sensor 
Sensors \ Other
Scalar fields
- Show histogram
- Compute stat. params
- Gradient
- Gaussian filter
- Bilateral filter
- Filter by Value
- Convert to RGB
- Convert to random RGB
- Rename
- Add constant SF
- Add classification SF
- Add point indexes as SF
- Export coordinate(s) to SF(s)
- Set SF as coordinate(s)
- Export normals to SF(s)
- Set SF(s) as normal
- Interpolate from another entity
- Split cloud (integer values)
- Arithmetic
- Color Scales Manager
- Delete
(deletes the active scalar field of the selected entities) - Delete all (!) (deletes all scalar fields of the selected entities)
Waveform
Tools
Clean
Projection
- Unroll
- Rasterize (and contour plot)
- Contour plot (polylines) to mesh
- Export coordinate(s) to SF(s)
- Create surface between two polylines
Registration
- Match bounding-box centers
- Match scales
- Align (point pairs picking)
- Fine registration (ICP)
- Move bounding-box center to origin
- Move bounding-box min corner to origin
- Move bounding-box max corner to origin
