# Profile Views

The default HMI webpage contains a 3D display connected to the spreadsheet point cloud. You can change the source of the 3D display to link to a profile view.

You can display one or more profile views on the HMI. In case of multiple profile views, you can add a selection box on the HMI which allows you to change from one view to another.

To display a single profile view on the HMI:

1. After publishing a profile view, a new cell name called Profile appears in the Properties list.

2. To edit the Source property, go to the 3D display source, click on the Edit button parallel to Source.

3. The Expression Builder dialog appears.

4. For each acquired point cloud, the HMI displays the corresponding profile view.

To display multiple views on the HMI:

1. On a job with multiple profile views, publish all the views that you want to display on the HMI. You can rename them with a tag name that is easy to identify.

2. Drag the Selection Box from the Toolbox and drop to the WebPage. A selection box appears.

3. To edit the Content property, click on the Edit button from the Properties panel on the bottom right of the WebPage.

4. The List Editor appears.

5. Add a name for every view you want to show in the Display 3D. For convenience, you can add the same name as in the published tags. Filling in the Value field is optional. Then click OK to save the settings.

6. To display the default view as first in the list, set the Selected Index to 0.

7. Drag and drop the Display 3D from the Toolbox to the WebPage.

8. The following window appears.

9. To edit the Source property, go to the 3D display source under the Properties, click on the Edit button parallel to the Source.

10. The Expression Builder dialog appears.

11. In the Expression Builder dialog, write the ItemAt function or find it by clicking on the Function button.

12. The first parameter of the ItemAt function is the tag of the selection box you create at the beginning and a reference to the Selected Index property. The rest of the arguments are the tags of every Profile View you publish from the Spreadsheet. Make sure that the order of the ItemAt arguments is the same as you set in the selection box content list. Then click OK.

13. The profile view list appears in the HMI. You can select to switch between Profile 1 and Profile 2.

When you display a profile on the HMI, similarly to on the spreadsheet, you can use the Profile View button to change between full 3D view and profile view:
