### **Using the Tool**

After running the command:

- A Windows browser opens to select a CWPRJ file.
- Then, the associated cloud data will be loaded with any active clipping applied.

Opening a new DataSource into a project that already has a DataSource loaded (must be the same as the one linked in the CloudWorx project) will prompt the user whether to append the data.

- **Yes** will append the additional point cloud data.
- **No** will close the dialog. ![image-20231006-112331.png](https://cdn.document360.io/820e11db-8ed5-45ae-ac86-f6b77dcb2aa7/Images/Documentation/image-20231006-112331.png)
