# From CloudWorx

![CmdConvertCwProject.svg](https://cdn.document360.io/820e11db-8ed5-45ae-ac86-f6b77dcb2aa7/Images/Documentation/CmdConvertCwProject.svg)

This command converts a CloudWorx cloud (Read-only) to a standard cloud. Thus, you will be able to use all functions.

> [!TIP]
> ### Requirements
> 
> Load a CloudWorx cloud and launch the command.

1. Set **Maximum number of points** to convert. A selection of most representative points will be done to the CloudWorx cloud according to this limit. Optionally disable the import of intensity.
2. Note that if you have an active limit object, only unclipped points will be converted. In this case, a dedicated message will be displayed.
3. If the conversion takes a lot of memory, a dedicated message will indicate the amount of required memory and the current amount of free memory.

> [!TIP]
> ### Tip & Trick
> 
> - To extract a part of a CloudWorx cloud, you have to clip it using limit plane, slice or box functions before launching the command.

> [!WARNING]
> ### Notes
> 
> - For IMP data, the number of kept points should be lower (half of requested points) and the maximum is about 50 million.
