Hi Dimitri, in fact the 2nd and 3rd sliders (saturation) are absolute values because they are symmetrical. Normally , if you set min saturation to e.g. 200 and max saturation to 500, the colors should be constant between [-2048;-500[ (blue), ]-200;200[ (green) and ]500;2048] (red). And inbetween it ...

I was waiting for updates about this functionnality from dktrudgett (who was willing to advance on this topic).

I might do it myself soon however.

Hello Dimitri,

Indeed it crashes in the last version! Damn, as soon as you change something somewhere, there's always another thing somewhere else that goes wrong ... I really need to build up automatic non-regression tests (but this is soooooo boring).

It's corrected (Version: 04/14/2011).

You'd best look directly at 'qCC\fileIO\BinFilter.cpp (the 'saveToOpenedFile' and 'WriteListHeader' methods). the content is as following: [4 bytes - unsigned int] the number of clouds stored in the file then for each cloud: [4 bytes - unsigned int] the number of points in the cloud [1 byte - unsign...

Hello,

in fact, people generally import their own data from an ASCII file (one point per line - 'x y z' coordinates in clear text). Once loaded, they can save it in 'bin' format to make smaller files and faster loading.

However, you'll find in attach such a 'bin' file.

Hello, CloudCompare (in fact CCLib) is actually used for clash detection in at least one project to my knowledge. It's an ongoing project at EDF R&D. The aim is to detect clashes between static structures (represented by triangular meshes or point clouds) and a moving object (generally represent...

Hello, indeed, there was a bug (a missing include in fact in ccGLWindow.h) in the 21st Feb. version. It has been corrected in the trunk version yesterday. I must admit that for debugging I use MS Visual Studio! This is why there's a visual project in qCC/msvc/VC9 (it's for visual 2008 only). You sho...

Ok, it works now in the last online version (23 Feb. 2011) !

Very good! You should first look how the "point picking tool" works (ccPointPropertiesDlg or ccPointListPickingDlg). I think a simple way to do it could be: Add a "ToolButton" to the camera dialog next to the camera center coordinates fields (with the "point picking" ic...

There are two types of plugins supported by CloudCOmpare right now: standard plugin (generally this is just a bridge to an existing library/algorithm developed by third-parties) OpenGL filter (this corresponds to advanced shaders that require some processing and privileged access to the rendering co...
