Only Cyclone users know the struggle...

After selecting said piece of dust press the delete key repeatedly and harder than normal. That's the only way I get any satisfaction from the process.

It could be worse, you could accidentally select "delete outside of fence" since it is conveniently right next to what you want. At least that way you can accomplish less than nothing ...

At least they have an undo command now.

yeah my finger slipped and I hit Shift-O instead of Shift-I and it deleted everything outside of my little window. Oops. Undo is handy.

..that's my favorite command 🙂

Trying to visually align a series of school hall ways that are very similar....without a site map of the scan locations.

If I had to use Cyclone more than a few times a year I'd be in a padded room by now. It is by far the most aggravating software on the planet.

I can never seem to be productive two days in a row. Now I'm getting the shared resource error (no one else is using the resource). The fix is to optimize the database which takes hours.

This is par for the course for Cyclone, works great one day, a pile of ___ the next day.

Is Cyclone your "HAL"? Dave? Dave?

Yes it is.

I removed it's self-awareness module and all is well now.

Well, this helps explain some of your random rants posts in other threads of late. 😉

I do this with my HP-41 and my keyboard every day...

BTW - what is Cyclone? I Googled it and got this: "Cyclone is a web server framework for Python that implements the Tornado API as a Twisted protocol. " EH?

First you were talking smack about my other post now this!

🙁

I think I need to go to my safe place.

Cyclone is Leica's point cloud processing software. Very powerful but it runs on the edge of crashing a lot.

I actually find it fairly stable for the most part (compared to the early years), but, when it starts chunking your session is about to be done though

Sorry, Dave. I'm a bit frazzled writing descriptions for a little over 100 stone corners and how I rehabilitated them. Oh, and vainly attempting to get them placed on several plat sheets in a semi-readable form.

Glad to hear there is frustration there. I always hear the opposite... btw, Carlson is adding a new cloud engine in 2018. Their cloud software has been getting better and better since they hired Paul Nixon to program just Point Cloud.
