2D Polygon Facet [No polygon only contour points]

Post by ark »

Hi,
Trying to convert point cloud (PLY) to meshes (OBJ) by using Tools>fit>2D polygon (facet). However, able to obtaining only Contour points and not 2D polygons.
Using version CloudComapre 2.12.0(Kyiv). Can someone help me out on how to obtain the 2D Polygon so, I can export as mesh?
Not sure if I am missing something. Tried the steps and went through the forums, however, cannot figure out how to fix this?
Thanks in advance for your time.

'Hum, is it because of the LoD mechanism maybe? (= only at display time)

You can try to disable the option named 'When moved, decimate meshes over XXX triangles' in the 'Display > Display settings' menu.
