Best way to see point cloud during manual retopo

mdesign · October 27, 2021, 4:56pm

I would like to build a mesh over point cloud.
Is there any way to see point cloud better during building polygons? I mean without any paid external plugin. How to see point cloud better here? Maybe scale points?

Hello - you can set point cloud point size in the display mode settings

@mdesign - you can also have a play with testPointCloudStyle - this is an unsupported test command - use at your own risk - but might be useful.

@pascal :
Thanks a lot. What about transparency and temporary clipping?

Edit: and shading

Hello - Transparency should follow the alpha on the object orlayer color but it looks, at the moment, like it does not… Clipping planes should work however.

Can I use any kind of pseudo shading with point clouds?

Hello - only through testPointCloudStyle > set spheres or boxes.
