When you use a Portable or CMM interface with an existing Pointcloud (COP) that is aligned to a CAD model, PC-DMIS extracts and measures the laser Auto Feature when you create the feature.
This applies to the following:
When you create a laser Auto Feature with the QuickFeature method (Shift + Click).
When you create a laser Auto Feature from the Auto Feature dialog box (Insert | Feature | Auto).
This function is not available for directly-measured laser Auto Features.
