You can snap to points on the point cloud with the Node point cloud object snap. If the point cloud has segmentation data, you

3DOrbit
To further help with navigation, 3DOrbit functionality is enhanced to offer better control of the target point of the orbit. If you
turn off the option from the 3DOrbit right-click menu that enables Orbit Auto Target, you can click and hold the cursor during a
3DOrbit operation to specify the pivot point of the orbit. A small spherical icon indicates the pivot point. It automatically snaps to
the nearest point, enabling you to continue the 3DOrbit around that location.
