                                       only the [arg] pourcent of the input 3D
                                       points (uniformly selected).
 --noPointDisplay                      usefull for instance to only display 
                                       the lines between points.
 --drawLines                           draw the line between discrete points.
 -x [ --scaleX ] arg (=1)              set the scale value in the X direction 
                                       (default 1.0)
 -y [ --scaleY ] arg (=1)              set the scale value in the Y direction 
                                       (default 1.0)
 -z [ --scaleZ ] arg (=1)              set the scale value in the Z direction 
                                       (default 1.0)
 --sphereResolution arg (=30)          defines the sphere resolution (used 
                                       when the primitive is set to the 
                                       sphere). (default resolution: 30)
 -s [ --sphereRadius ] arg (=0.20000000000000001)
                                       defines the sphere radius (used when 
                                       the primitive is set to the sphere). 
                                       (default value 0.2)
 --sphereRadiusFromInput               takes, as sphere radius, the 4th field 
                                       of the sdp input file.
 --lineSize arg (=0.20000000000000001) defines the line size (used when the 
                                       --drawLines or --drawVectors option is 
                                       selected). (default value 0.2))
 -p [ --primitive ] arg (=voxel)       set the primitive to display the set of
                                       points (can be sphere, voxel (default),
                                       or glPoints (opengl points).
 -v [ --drawVectors ] arg              SDP vector file: draw a set of vectors 
                                       from the given file (each vector are 
                                       determined by two consecutive point 
                                       given, each point represented by its 
                                       coordinates on a single line.
 --interactiveDisplayVoxCoords         by using this option the pixel 
                                       coordinates can be displayed after 
                                       selection (shift+left click on voxel). 

Basic example:

You can display a set of 3D points with sphere primitive and lines:

$  3DSDPViewer -i $DGtal/tests/samples/sinus3D.dat -p sphere -s 0.3 --drawLines --lineSize 5 

You should obtain such a result:

Resulting visualization.

Example with interactive selection :

This tool can be useful to recover coordinates from a set of voxels. To do it, you have to add the option allowing to activate the interactive selection (with –interactiveDisplayVoxCoords), for instance if you apply:

$ 3DSDPViewer -i $DGtal/tests/samples/Al100.sdp  --interactiveDisplayVoxCoords 

you should be able to select a voxel by using the SHIFT key and by clicking on a voxel:

Visualization of large point set

If you need to display an important number of points, you can use the primitive glPoints instead voxel or sphere (-p glPoints). You will obtain such type of a visualization:
