This command splits cloud(s) according to the real color on each point. Points having a color similar to the selected one will be grouped in a point cloud. For example, you can use this command to select all the green points in a cloud in order to filter the vegetation.

> 
> Select at least one cloud containing real colors and launch the command.

1. Pick one or several points in the scene or define the RGB values of the color you want to extract. The selected **color** is displayed in a small square next to the RGB values corresponding.
2. Define the **Tolerance** using the slider. It is possible to define a value between:
  1. **Strict** means that only the points having exactly the same color as the defined will be extracted.
  2. **Default** is a good value in most cases.
  3. **Tolerant** means that points having roughly the same color as the defined will be extracted.
3. Choose the cloud you want to display by clicking **bulbs**.
4. Optionally, define the **Name** of the extracted cloud to add information about the color of the extracted object.

> [!TIP]
> ### Tips & Tricks
> 
> If you click **OK, Next**, the extracted cloud will be hidden in the next step. Thus, you will be able to segment according to another color.
