Hello. I’m trying to export a thinned out PLY file using the file out POP.
I load the PLY file into my project, thin out with the Delete POP and then export it with the file out POP. But if i upload the exported file it’s the same number of points, even if I use the Boundary box delete feature in Delete POP, it still shows the same number of points, even though the model is missing a big chunk of it.
I cannot for the life of me understand what is going on.
Did you delete points or primitives?
Hello @Nicklasmathews,
Thank you for the report, I was able to reproduce the issue, this is a bug with the File Out POP, it looks like it currently saves the number of allocated points instead of the actual number of points since after a Delete POP the Point Count Info is stored on the GPU.
We’ll fix the issue, in the mean time as a workaround, you can use the Convert POP, Copy Topology Info back to CPU mode (it should realy be “Copy Point Count Info and Topology Info back to CPU”, we might rename it) before the File Out POP, see attached.
