View Visualized Data in Mech-MSR
In Mech-MSR, you can use the data viewer to check the visualized data and adjust the feature region(s).
| You can use data viewer only after Debug Output is enabled in the graphical programming workspace. |
The following figure shows the interface of the data viewer. The usage of each feature is introduced below.
Switch the Display Mode (①)
Use the following icons to switch the display mode:
-
Click
to switch to the 2D image mode and view the data in a 2D perspective. Switchable only when 2D images are available. -
Click
to switch to the Perspective mode and view the data in a 3D perspective. -
Click
to switch to the Surface mode and view the data on the XOY plane. -
Click
to switch to the Profile mode and view the data on the XOZ plane. Profiles are usually processed in this view.
Switch the Point Cloud Mode (②)
Use the following icons to switch the point cloud mode:
-
Click
to switch to the Monochrome point cloud. -
Click
to switch to the Color point cloud. -
Click
to switch to the Grayscale point cloud.
Switch the Intensity Image Mode (③)
Use the following icons to switch the intensity image mode:
-
Click
to switch to the Intensity image. -
Click
to switch to the Color intensity image.
Downsampling Settings (④)
When the image size is large, the software may take longer to process the data for visualization. Enabling Debug Output could result in performance lag. You can reduce the image resolution by downsampling to lower the data volume and speed up visualization.
-
Auto-downsampling: Automatically selects the optimal downsampling ratio according to the image size to balance the visualization speed and image details.
-
No downsampling: Maintains the original image resolution without applying downsampling.
-
Fixed ratio: Scales the image down to 1/2, 1/4, 1/6, 1/8, 1/10, 1/12, 1/14, or 1/16 of its original width and height. A smaller ratio (e.g., 1/16) means faster visualization but a greater loss of image details.
| The downsampling setting only affects the display and does not impact the calculation results of the Steps. |
|
If the visualization requirements are high, you can use a higher-performance IPC to resolve the software execution lagging issue when Debug Output is enabled. Mech-Mind IPC provides the standard operation environment for Mech-Mind’s software products and therefore can maximize the function and performance of the software. For better user experience, select an appropriate IPC according to the actual project requirements.

Adjust the View (⑤)
Use the following buttons or shortcuts to adjust the view:
| Action | Instructions |
|---|---|
Rotate the view |
Press and hold the left mouse button and drag in any direction. |
Pan the view |
Press and hold |
Zoom in/out |
Press and hold |
Fit the view |
Click |
The navigation gizmo 
shows the orientation of the current view. Click the icon of each axis (X, Y, Z, -X, -Y, -Z) to align the view with the axis.
Set the Feature Region(s) (⑥)
Feature regions define the target regions for algorithm processing. You can roughly and intuitively adjust the position and size of the feature region(s) in the data viewer area.
For detailed instructions, see Adjust Feature Region in Data Viewer Area.
