CloudCompare forum

Hi, I've made a very nice mesh using poissonrecon and would like to colorize it based on RGB values of the original points that went in to making the mesh. Is there an easy way to do this in CloudCompare?

Duh, I had a Custom Light which was colored red.

Sorry this took a while, but I got around to uploading the .ply . It's at http://files.foobarbecue.com/unbeatable ... n-0000.zip . I've not got quite a few of these produced by VisualSFM, and all are loading red in CloudCompare. It must be some setting I've messed with in CC...?

I've got .ply output files from VisualSFM / CMVS, and they import nicely into CloudCompare except for one thing: the point colors have a strong red cast. The .ply file is binary with a header that looks like: ply format binary_little_endian 1.0 comment VCGLIB generated element vertex 2633629 propert...

Perfect, thank you!

Is it possible to display individual point clouds in different colors? Would be very helpful to distinguish them during registration.

Thanks,
Aaron
