Import Pointclouds with "PLYToCompute"

Hello everyone,

I’m encountering an issue importing point clouds into Fuse. I’ve saved my point cloud as a .ply file in binary format. When I try to read it using PLYToCompute, it doesn’t seem to work — the buffer appears empty, as shown in the image below.

Interestingly, when I use PLYReader, everything works fine. This makes me suspect the issue might be related to the formatting of the point cloud itself, as PLYToCompute has worked for me in the past with other files.

I’m preparing the .ply files in CloudCompare. Could anyone advise on the correct export settings to ensure compatibility?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I’m having some trouble with the PLY Reader and would appreciate your help.

The PLYReader from the IO.PLY help patch works perfectly. However, the help patches that come with Fuse are causing issues.

When I open the Fuse help patch, I get the following error:

What can I do?
