Bad Point Imports from Space Delimited File

Waterline Endings with Sheer Strake.txt (204 Bytes)

The attached file is normal .CSV but I cannot upload a .CSV to this site. When I read it in, the first point is at

Point at (4635416666671.636,13.271,66.000).

while the file has it at

26.4635416666667 13.2708333333333 66.00

I have found the same problem reading a number of files. This is the shortest example I could come up with.

I get the same problem if I make it comma delimited.

Dunno, the attached is what I get when I import into Rhino for Windows… Looks correct.

Mac text interpretation (delimiters linefeed/carriage return) is different from Windows, I have had trouble in the past with text files going from one platform to the other. Maybe that’s part of the problem, haven’t got time this morning to test further.

I am having the same problem with comma delimited file. The X coordinate of the first entry got changed from 863.5 to 0.5

I do this kind of import with a text file that includes the command, like so:

InterpCrv degree=3
1.000000,0.000000
0.996550,0.000390
0.986490,0.001740
0.970490,0.004270
0.949160,0.007780
0.922850,0.011960

and then use the command ReadCommandFile, ending with Enter

Max.

As bigjimslade reported there is a problem when loading point files on Mac, the first point is ignored.
Minimal example:
Import a file with the following points:
0 0 0
0 1 0
1 0 0
1 1 0
You should get 4 points, but Rhino only load 3.

Hi Romain - Thanks, I see that. Seems to work if there is an empty line at the top of the file…

FYI: This issue should be fixed in the latest RhinoWIP.
