CMake Errors

[les245]

Hello,

I'm trying to build CC in VS but I got so many errors in CMake... Maybe someone had the same problem?

Until now I have installed CMake 3.82, Qt 5.9 and Visual Studio 2017. I'm completely new to all this (doing my bachelor thesis at the moment).

Any help will be appreciated.

Well, first I have never tried to compile CC with Qt 5.9. I hope it's not the reason of the errors.

But first, be sure to make the QT5_ROOT_PATH variable point to the right folder of your Qt installation (something like 'E:/Qt/Qt5.9/5.9/msvc2017_64').

Thank you very much, that solved the problem. But now, as I try to compile the INSTALL project, I get 3 errors...

What I need to do is get a mesh of a point cloud. I got it using the Delaunay feature in CloudCompare and now I have to automate it, so I thought it would be easy to program it in C++ using a library but I'm completely lost and overtaken. I have never done anything similar (I learned to program in C# but never used many libraries). Could you point me in the right direction or tell me if what I'm trying to do is achievable?

I attached a screenshot of the errors. Thank you very much again.

[daniel]

Why don't you use the command line version then? (http://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/in ... _line_mode)

Otherwise regarding your compilation issue, have you set the 'install' directory to a path different from 'Program Files'? (refer to the compilation instructions).

[les245]

Thank you so much! That was exactly what I was looking for. You are awesome.

My very last question: is it possible to scale the point clouds automatically?

[daniel]

Scaling on which basis?

[les245]

The point clouds are in cm but CloudCompare works in mm so I need to multiply everything by 10.
The point in the point cloud would be 4 but in reality it's 40 mm.

[daniel]

Strangely, the 'Scale' tool while very simple is not available via the command line mode... Meanwhile you can use the 'Apply transformation' tool (APPLY_TRANS) with the following matrix:
S 0 0 0
0 S 0 0
0 0 S 0
0 0 0 1

with S being the scale you want to apply (mind that the last diagonal element is 1 and not S)

[les245]

Thank you so much! That was exactly what I was looking for.

Hello again,

I have one more question: will it be possible to convert the meshes into STL ASCII without having to click? I saw this feature for FBX and PLY formats but not for STL, using for example FBX_ascii.

Thank you in advance,

Lucas
