Customize the 3D View options in the Options dialog. |
Maximum Number of Points
Large point cloud layers can use a lot of resources to render in the 3D view. The number of points displayed in the 3D view is limited by the Maximum number of points option. If Surfer is not responsive or slow to respond when viewing a point cloud in the 3D view, reduce the Maximum number of points option. The default is 2 million (2M) points. Select 1M, 2M, 4M, 8M, 12M, or 16M from the list. Any open 3D view windows must be closed and reopened after changing the Maximum number of points value in the Options dialog to apply the change.
Property Change Delay
The Property change delay option sets the length of time in milliseconds of no user input before applying all property changes in the 3D view. You may want to increase the value of this option if you are changing multiple property values and are experiencing lags in responsiveness.
View Update Delay
The View update delay option sets the length of time in milliseconds of no user input before re-rendering the 3D View. You may want to increase the value of this option if you are making frequent changes and are experiencing lags in responsiveness.
