CloudCompare forum

Yeah, no problem. It's already in the trunk version. It will appear in the next release. I just had to strip the ",0,'f',3" arguments of the QString 'arg' methods, as it depends too much on your cloud dimensions/units. I prefer let QString choose automatically (it does this well generally)...

Hello, indeed, the CloudCompare 2.3 documentation is still a "work in progress" (for 2 years now!). In fact, the "compute density" tool is very simple and was just intended to give a quick and dirty overlook of the cloud density repartition: - for each point of the cloud, it just...

Hum, didn't you want to work in non-absolute mode? In this mode, the minimum and maximum are actually the true values. For the other issues, the color in each square is generally the color that you would get with the average value in this square. But for some specific values (0, min and max, etc.), ...

Hello Dimitri, here is a first peak on the new 'color scale' system. - I've found very neat widgets to handle intervales (Qxt library 'SpanSlider' - libqxt.org). It should help to better understand how the sliders work. - I've added options in the 'Display settings' dialog to handle the color scale ...

Hello Dimitri, It's true that the sliders are a bit limited while already quite complicated... With the system you propose, how do you handle saturation near 0 ? For example to have a constant color between -2 and 2 and regular color ramps between -10:-2 and 2:5 ? But I get your point and I'll try t...

You can send me your errors by email.

Did you update the 'start_msvc.bat' paths ?

Is this in 'perspective' mode? I didn't tried EDL in this mode!

I will disable the "zoom" following effect for perspective modes if this is not satisfactory.

Hello,

you don't have to compile Qt for MSCV anymore. Just download the standard "VS 2008" version (http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/downloads#qt-lib) and install it. Then install the "Qt Visual Studio Add-in" (same page).

I would answer: both! In fact, the computation is done in "screen space", and we should give to the shader the actual bounding box of what's actually visible and not the whole bounding box (but of course, it's much harder to compute in real time). However, there are first approximations th...

This strategy has been implemented in the last version (28 June 2011). Proper restoration on save works only with all ASCII formats (asc, obj, etc.) and the LAS format (the other formats use 32 bits representations of coordinates for storage, so restoration is not possible).
