CloudCompare forum

Hi All,

When I am panning my model (holding down both mouse buttons and dragging) it gives my model a sort of transparent mesh look and when I release the mouse buttons it goes back to a normal shaded model. How can I retain that transparent mesh look? I need a transparent view and that appearance is perfect for what I need but I can't figure out how to maintain that look.

Thanks!!

CC is decimating your cloud to have better framerate during the pan/rotate mouse operation.

If you want that look, subsample the cloud to any % you like

Hello
What you're seeing is likely a temporary rendering mode that CloudCompare uses while navigating to keep performance smooth. Have you tried switching the display to wireframe or enabling transparency in the object's display settings? It won't be exactly the same as the navigation view, but it may get you very close to the look you're after.
