Can't load stl file

[Holg Spre]

Hi!

I'm quite new in 3D data processing and want to work with CC. I created a .stl file by the use of a 3D photogrammetric scanner (GOM ATOS).

But unfortunately I can not open the file in CC.

When I start CC in the console it is written:
[ccGL Window::paintGL] OpenGL error: invalid enumerator
[ccGL Window::paintGL] OpenGL error: invalid enumerator

When I try to open a .stl file a new window opens (Tag duplicated vertices) but CC do not response anymore ...

Has anybody an idea what I can do?
Thanks in advance!

What version are you using? Can you share the file with me maybe? (cloudcompare [at] danielgm.net)

[Holg Spre]

I use Version 2.6.0 ...
For sure I can share the file with you. You can just download it by:

I'll test it asap.

Meanwhile can you test it with the 2.7 version?

[daniel]

I confirm that it works well with the 2.7 (or 2.8 beta) version. It should also be ok with 2.6.3 version.

I remember there was a bug at a time with the vertex merging algorithm (it was using a way too deep octree level to perform, which resulted in a awfully slow process on small models.

Sorry for my late response!

Although I recently updated the drivers of my graphic card, it does not fullfill the requirements for CloudCompare 2.7 (OpenGL 2.1). So I fear that I will not be able to use CloudCompare ...

Thanks for you're help!

You can still install the 2.6.3 beta version (there's a post with the links - something about "Windows 10").

o.k. that sounds good. But, sorry I can't find the post or download file of version 2.6.3. Not in the cc-forum or on google...Do you remember the title of the post or perhaps the week or month to reduce possibilities?
