Hello,
I get wrong coordinates when i load a .dp file, but once i export it as a .ply file in the DPI-8, the coordinates get correct, but the point cloud get vertical holes. Any idea of what could be wrong?
Wrong coordinates when loading .dp file
Re: Wrong coordinates when loading .dp file
These coordinates are indeed insanely big!? Is this file coming directly out of a DP device? Did you do something in particular before exporting it?
I guess the holes come from the loss of precision (as even the Global Shift & Scale mechanism is failing here).

I've georeferenced the cloud with the DP device. The .dp file and the ply file should be exactly the same.
here's a screenshot of the holes:

Re: Wrong coordinates when loading .dp file
The stripes are definitely due to the loss of accuracy somewhere in the process. I bet the coordinates are so huge because they are expressed in millimeters.
I'll add some more zeros to the 'Global Shift & Scale' shifting capability so as to be able to cope with this case.

Re: Wrong coordinates when loading .dp file
Okay, I modified the dialog so that you (or CC itself) can input shifting values above 1.0e9. It should fix your issue.
This will be available in the next official release (version 2.7). Should be out at the end of the week.
