Selection Filter: Using filters to select elements. Did you know that MinePlan 3D (MP3D) has a feature that allows you to filter elements for selection in xViewer? When using the Selection menu in MP3D, there is an option to create filters for the selection of elements directly by xViewer (Selection > Configure Selection Filter). These filters can cover one or more types of elements: Points, Polygons, Polylines, Surfaces, Labels and Directional Labels. Furthermore, additional options can be set for more detailed selection: selection of 2D and/or 3D data; selection guided by planes (Planar, East-West or North-South) with the application of a range; selection from the Element Name or Material Name of the elements; and geometric selections, based on the length, area or volume of the element.

Did you know that it is possible to quickly generate drilling holes using directional and geological parameters in MinePlan 3D? In this article, we will explore how the Drillhole Design Tool can facilitate the planning of drillhole trajectories, optimizing processes and results. What is the Drillhole Design Tool? The Drillhole Design Tool, located in the Geo Tools menu of MinePlan 3D, is a powerful tool that allows you to plan the trajectory of a drill hole using previously established polylines. You can enter data directly into xViewer or by defining coordinates, ensuring accuracy and efficiency. Drillhole Design Tool Configuration Modes When opening the Drillhole Design Tool, you must define a name for the hole and choose one of the available configuration modes: Use existing polylines: allows you to select polylines already drawn in xViewer. The option…

Object Contents Browser: Identifying and editing geometric objects. Did you know that it is possible to identify the contents of geometric objects and edit them through the Object Contents Browser tool? The Object Contents Browser allows selecting data for editing from a dialog box, with the possibility to load them in the Viewer or not. The tool simplifies selecting data for editing, resulting in significant reductions in memory overhead and improved performance. The Object Contents Browser can also be used to highlight, target and query the object, or just browse to determine its content. The tool is accessed from the Utilities menu, or by right-clicking the desired geometric object in the Data Manager. It can be minimized and if you try to use the tool for another object, the minimized window will be restored showing the contents of that…
