1. Overview 1.1 What does this exercise cover? Exercise 1 This exercise shows alignment using Ref. Plane that is extracted from mesh regions.

Exercise 2 You can select Ref. Geometries for alignment but you also can directly select necessary regions for alignment as discussed in this exercise.

Exercise 3 If you have CAD data and want to align scan data to CAD data, this exercise shows how to align them.
