Sample Rate Specifies the frequency of points extracted from the input file.
Increasing the sample rate, reduces the number of points extracted. As a result, the image resolution is reduced,
and the file is converted faster.
Point Colors Specifies how points are extracted from the input file.
Select from the following options:
■ None - the points come through as white.
■ Raw Intensity - the points use the intensity values stored in the file.
■ Color - the points use the color values stored in the file.
■ Color-Mapped Intensity - the points use a spectrum of RGB colors.
■ Gamma Correction Intensity - the points use gamma-corrected raw intensity values stored in the file.
Gamma Correction Level Specifies a gamma correction value used to adjust the normalized point intensity
values obtained from the file, and results in lighter or darker images depending on the setting.
A gamma correction value in the range between 0.1 and 0.99 adjusts the weighting of intensity values at the
lower end of the intensity range, so that the image appears lighter.
A gamma correction level above 1.0 has the effect of darkening the image.
NOTE A gamma correction of 1 means no changes.

Include Line-Geometry Select this check box to convert MicroGDS line-primitives.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores line-geometry.
Set Facet Circle Specifies the number of facets for arcs.
Enter the number of straight line segments required to facet a whole circle. This option corresponds to the
MicroGDS Set Facet preference.
Texture Path Specifies the path to the folder containing images used in MicroGDS Materials. This path is used
as the base for relative paths for materials that use image files.
This option corresponds to the MicroGDS Renderer Textures preference.
Define Presenter Materials Select this check box to define MicroGDS material-styles as Presenter materials in
Autodesk Navisworks.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores MicroGDS material-styles.
