Hello
Is it possible to create cube shapes in CloudCompare and then create a point cloud from it?
I don't know if I explained what I mean well

You can create a cube (box) with the 'Primitive factory'. And then sample points on it as it's similar to a mesh.

Yes, it's possible, though CloudCompare isn't primarily a modeling tool. You can create primitive shapes like cubes using the "Primitive Factory" plugin. Once you've created the cube, you can sample points on its surface using the "Sample points on mesh" tool to generate a point cloud. Let me know if you need a step-by-step.

Also you can export any shape from Blender as STL format and open by CC
