# Rendering - Point Density

## Function

Allow you to trade off resolution against point loading and rendering speed. Better resolution (point density) requires more time to load and render the points. When point density is off, it uses the full detail required by the viewport.

## Procedure

Change Point Density Level:

1. Click on the icon or type **CWPOINTSPACING** at the CAD command line and press **Enter**.
2. Select point density level [Set / Off / 1 / 2 / 3 / 4] at the CAD command line and press **Enter**.

Following convenient icons are provided to work with **CWPOINTSPACING** command to switch among different density settings.
