Hi there, have a point cloud with RGB values and normals. I was wanting to convert the normals to HSV through: Edit > Normals > Convert to > HSV colors. When I do this, the original RGB values are replaced.

What I was wondering was if there was a way to keep the original RGB colours, AND have the normals as HSV?

Well you can always export original rgb colors to scalar field before runing the to hsv calc, howevere there is no quick way to show 3 scalar field at once, so to view orginal colors you need to export the new one as SF than create color from original r,g,b SFs.
