This command filters points inside cloud(s) according to the angle between the estimated normal and the scanning direction of each point.

> [!TIP]
> ### Requirements
> 
> Select at least one cloud containing scanning directions and launch the command.

---

1. Set the **Angle threshold** between estimated normal and scanning direction. If the angle between the estimated normal of a point and its scanning direction is higher than the defined angle, the point will be filtered.
2. Define the output points you want:
  - **Valid points**.
  - **Filtered points**.
