Hello TIG,

Thank you very much for your response. I am still not having any luck.

I opened the example.dat file from the cloud v6 documentation, and saved it directly to my desktop. I then accessed the example.dat file through the plugin "Import points cloud", and the results are the same; after I locate the origin, nothing happens even after 10 minutes. Any thoughts?

Thank you in advance for your time.

Robert

P.S.
I am using the SU Free version.

I am trying to use the Ruby Script: Cloud V6. The problem appears to be with my data file.

As a test I wanted to plot the eight corners of a cube. I created in MS Word the following file:

0,0,0
1,0,0
0,0,1
1,0,1
0,1,0
1,1,0
0,1,1
1,1,1

I saved the file using the "plain text" option of the Save command in Word. From within SU I chose from the plugin menu: "Import cloud points." The dialog box appears, and the "Line sample for reference" appears to be correct. (There is however, a vertical line at the end of the coordinate data). When I click on OK, and then choose the location of the origin, a small square appears at the origin selected, but then nothing else happens even after several minutes.

I tried saving the file from Notebook, and from Excel using the CSV option. The results are the same.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Robert
