Cloud_V6 query

Hi,
I think this is a new problem due to v7. I must look into it... -
Okay, Didier (the author of the script) is here now so he hould be able to be of much more help than me.

Hi,
I have followed the procedure as given in the pdf document. However when I import the example data file, everything seems to be ok till it asks for the origin. When I click on a point (in this case the origin), it just makes a small square symbol and nothing else happens. I am running Sketchup 7.1. Any suggestions?
Thanks. -
Hi JK,
What if you are relatively far from the origin? Try to zoom in (or zoom extent; Shift+Z)
-
Hi Gaieus,
I tried zooming in, but did not see the data. Actually, the status bar says 3989 points to load, but then it does change the status to "Adding point x/t" as the tutorial states. The status simply changes to "Pick a point for points cloud origin". That is why I think no data is loaded. I hope this provides some clues to the problem I am facing. Can the Sketchup version be the problem? I just downloaded it (the latest I guess V7).
Thanks -

ThanksHi,
I believe I am running into this same issue. Everything seems to be fine until "Pick a point for points cloud origin". When I select a point, a small box is placed but that's all that happens. Zoom extents doesn't find any construction points.
Thanks,

Can you upload the file in question - or perhaps PM it if it's 'not for publication'... ???
-
I dunno guys. I have just tested the plugin on the latest SU version and it seems to work fine (true that with a very simple text file with the co-ordinates of 3 points altogether).
So as TIG suggested, could you share the data file?
-
Here is a simple text file originally created with excel as a CSV. For some reason I can't upload the CSV file extension, so I saved it to text. Neither the text file or the CSV file will import into sketchup.
Thanks,
Paul

Only certain 'raw' file types are allowed to be uploaded here: a .csv file needs re-sufixing or zipping...
I tested the file and it worked fine for me - imported cloud and made a surface [v7 + PC] - so... do you have the latest version and its pdf help file ?
