Abstract
Disclosed is a system for differentiating the selection of three-dimensional (“3D”) image data in a 3D space from other unselected 3D image data that may be positioned in front of the selected 3D image data, and for customizing editing operations that are presented in a user interface based on the object or material property represented in the selection. The system selects a set of 3D image data in response to a user input, and adjusts the transparency of unselected 3D image data that is positioned in front of the selected set of 3D image data. The system presents a differentiated visualization by rendering the selected set of 3D image data according to an original size, position, and visual characteristics defined for the selected set of 3D image, and by performing a partial or fully transparent rendering of the unselected 3D image as a result of the transparency adjustment.
