Ah, maybe that's the LAZ format that's not supported? Does it work without the end part? (-EXT LAZ)

And it's with the latest version of CC?

So, there's a kind of roundabout way to do this (not sure it's simpler!). You can use the 'Ransac Shape Detection' plugin to detect a cylinder (check only the 'cylinder' as detected primitive, and generally it's a good idea to set a relatively high number for 'min support points per primitive', so t...

Which graphic card and screen (resolution, technology, etc.) are you working with?

Have you tried to change the projection mode? Are the coordinates of the points too large maybe? (in which case the points may not appear where they really are in space...).

I'm a bit puzzled by the fact that you seem to work with a (Delaunay?) mesh instead of the point cloud... Is there any reason for that?

With the Cross section tool, you have to 'extract' the slice (= create a new entity). This will duplicate the data, so that's safe. And then you can run the process on this excerpt. But that has to be done explicitly each time. Then remove the subset cloud if you don't use it anymore. (also, unrelat...

Or maybe that's a super smart protection to prevent people from creating their own installer of Cloudcompare and infringing the GPL license ;) Just kidding. The only other culprit I see is the Visual Studio 2019 Installation framework you used. I don't know anything about it, but I guess an installe...

It's just that it's a 'utility' function and not a real algorithm/process. You could call it 3 or 5 times with different SF names, and that would make a super long 'composite' name...

Hi,

Unless you also get this error when running the standard version of CloudCompare of course ;)

At minimum, I've increased the timestamp resolution of the output files in this version: https://www.cloudcompare.org/release/Cl ... up_x64.exe
