Features

  • Settings:
    • Process: Choice of the process to run based on the current scene's point of view:
      • Copy Visible Faces (New Component) (default): will copy all the fully or partially visible faces in a new component.
      • Hide Fully Obscured Faces: will hide faces that are fully obscured (not visible from the scene's point of view).

    • Min. Opacity: Opacity value of a face that determine if it should be considered as opaque (faces behind it are not visible) or transparent enough (faces behind it are visible). It is the direct equivalent of the alpha value of a material in SketchUp.
      • min: 0.01 (fully transparent).
      • max (default): 1 (fully opaque).

    • Precision: Determines how picky the process will be in term of collecting the visible faces. The Exact option will scan the scene pixel by pixel so as to not miss any face. It is consequently slower. The lower precisions will gradually skip pixels, leading to quicker process but higher chances of missing small details.
      • Exact: full scene resolution
      • Very Good (default): 1/2 scene res.
      • Good: 1/3 scene res.
      • Fair: 1/4 scene res.
      • Low: 1/5 scene res.

  • Run: Triggers the process. Wait a bit for the magic to operate!
