The radial menu gives you quick access to common 3D view settings without leaving the canvas. Each outer segment is a setting; hover a segment to open its sub-menu of options.

Open the radial menu in the 3D view using the default shortcut `o`. Press `o` again, press `Esc`, or move the cursor away from the menu to close it.

As you hover over an option in a sub-menu, it is applied immediately so you can preview the change. Clicking an option keeps it and closes the menu. If you move away without clicking, the setting reverts to what it was before.

The radial menu has five sub-menus. Some only appear when the task supports the underlying feature.

## Point cloud overlay

Controls how the point cloud is projected onto the 2D camera images.

- **None**
- **Depth**
- **Intensity**
- **Sensor** — only in multi-lidar tasks
- **Classification** — only in 3D point classification tasks

## Point cloud color

Sets how the point cloud is colored. The available options depend on the task and the point cloud data. Further reading: [Point cloud color modes](docId\:raL903vF5_H_D4nLmR6SC).

- **Depth RGB**
- **Height RGB**
- **Height**
- **Intensity**
- **Intensity RGB**
- **Timestamp** — not in 3D point classification tasks
- **Frame RGB** — not in 3D point classification tasks
- **Sensor coloring** — only in multi-lidar tasks
- **Image colors** / **RGB** — when the point cloud carries image colors
