Question:
I am working on a renovation project using a point cloud within my model. My computer is working very slowly and whenever I zoom into the model it takes a while to show the point cloud each time. How can I improve this?

Answer:
Point clouds are groups of measured points on the surfaces of objects created with 3D laser scanners and can be large files, which can affect computer speed. You can now use point clouds through the internet to improve performance. There is a new URL option in the Attach point cloud dialog where you can enter the URL address.
