Re: First launch time very long in windows session.

I think it's because of the Python plugin (that loads the Python environment). If you don't use it, you can probably uninstall and re-install CC without it.

Re: how to achieve xray style orthoimages

Good point, I've added something to the 'Rasterize' tool wiki ( https://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/index.php/Rasterize#Hillshade_/_X-ray ).

(I also fixed the nice typo on the line pointed by your link to the code :-D).

And the good thing about the automatic saturation is that it's only the ...

Re: About recent GlassWorm malware

CloudCompare does not rely on that many third party software packages, and definitely not the most widespread.

More importantly, as stated in the article: " The infections spanned JavaScript, TypeScript and Python repositories ". We don't use any of these in the CloudCompare application itself ...

Re: Oculus Rift S

Well, we don't support Oculus headsets anymore, but we did in the past, so it's technically feasible (you may want to refer to the commit where it was removed: https://github.com/CloudCompare/CloudCompare/commit/2d13bb9e5ed5c60cc02f993bb3559d779155d557 ).

If you manage to make it work again with ...

Re: Automating 'extract section' tool

The Cross section options may not have been all transferred to the command line.

Can you share with us the command line you tried?

And if you send me some data (admin@cloudcompare.org), I can try to add the right option.

Re: New Geospatial Formats

Well, CloudCompare has no real roadmap, as it's developed by various individuals in their free time. So we would need someone motivated to add the support for such formats (support which is always welcome!)

Re: how can i show the triangles as lines?

You need to disable the mesh 'normals' (in its properties). And next to this option you have the 'wireframe' option as well.

Re: superposition fichier laz

Oui tout à fait. Mais travailler avec des très grandes coordonnées cause malheureusement des problèmes de précision. Dans ce cas il faudrait peut-être utiliser un 'scaling' dans le dialogue de Shift & Scale à l'ouverture ?

Re: Question about point cloud alignment in CloudCompare

Yes, the most important parameter is the 'overlap ratio'. If your 'to-be-aligned' cloud is wider or maybe has non-overlapping areas with the 'reference' entity, then the corresponding point will bias the result. So make sure you set the 'overlap ratio' to something realistic (= how much of your to ...
