CloudCompare forum

Hey Daniel,

is there a way to open CloudCompare.exe and directly load a file in it?

I want to open CloudCompare and directly load a file of a given path.

I know it is possible in Command Line mode but then I do not see my point cloud.


One Solution I just found is:

CloudCompare.exe filepath

in this case however I still have to press Apply in the next box.

Yes, 'CloudCompare filepath' does prevent you from using the 'File open' dialog, but then the standard loading process happens (and you can see some other dialogs depending on the format).

You may want to use a format that doesn't require any other dialog? (not sure it's possible, especially if the coordinates are huge, etc.).
