Was this added? If so, where do I find it?

Thanks,

Hi, My model is being lit from the wrong side. When I aligned two meshes (using the 3-point selection method) one of the meshes appears to have become inverted. I've tried selecting "Invert Normals" but it is still lit from the back. The other cloud appears illuminated from the correct sid...

Nevermind. The + icon (center of rotation) does work. You just have to click directly on a point. In a sparse point-cloud, sometimes you miss....

1) The + icon to pick a new point doesn't work in Linux or OSX. It switches context, and the correct text appears at the bottom of the window, "Pick a point to be used as rotation center (click on icon again to cancel)". Clicking on icon does cancel. Clicking anywhere in the window has the...

Hi, I have a task that I need to do, and CC may or may not be the right tool. I'm looking for suggestions how to best do this. Perhaps in CC, perhaps in another tool, perhaps in a combination of tools. I have a ~500 m long cylinder and I am studying the inside of it. I have digitized it into about 2...

Here is a data set, PLY and OBJ. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/12453163/cc.zip

The PLY file has "comment TextureFile subglacial.jpg" and MeshLab auto-loads the JPEG with the PLY.

-k.

Yes the OBJ file makes it look just like it does in PhotoScan. The PLY + overlay is exported from PhotoScan as a PLY file and a JPEG. Just like the OBJ is exported as an OBJ + JPEG. I assumed CC was loading the JPEG to give it the fuzzy texture, although maybe that information is encoded in the PLY?...

Hi, I have a 3D model generated from photographs and the structure-from-motion algorithm in PhotoScan. A screenshot of that is here: photoscan.png When I export that model (PLY + JPEG) and import it into qCC, it looks like this: cc.png Why is qCC so fuzzy? The JPEG overlay appears sharp. Is there so...

Hi j_m and others monitoring this thread,

CC now works (initially, no extensive testing yet) on OS X. Download the latest code from GitHub and:

mkdir build
ccmake ..
make
./qCC/qCC #run it.
