@pascal - Works perfectly. Thank you so much for helping me on this! I really appreciate it!

OK, youā€™re welcome - good, Iā€™m glad that works. I updated above to include a "resetā€™ option, that was bugging me.

Hi @pascal ,

Iā€™ve encountered one issue with the script.

When I select a point list, everything works fine. I can stop and restart where i left off and I have no issues.
Without closing Rhino, if I change the list, an issue arises. If I stop and start with the second list, the FIRST list becomes the current list, rather than the one I was just using. Do you think thereā€™s anyway to get it so it doesnā€™t revert to the original list used?

Thanks!

Iā€™ll take a lookā€¦ prolly doing something dumbā€¦

@mcmucher - please check the file in the post above, I refreshed with a ā€˜fixā€™. Let me knowā€¦

Hi @pascal, Iā€™m actually continuing @mcmucherā€™s work and I had a follow-up question. This might be an obvious answer, but is there any way to display those point names on the mesh rather than just under ā€œNameā€ in the Object properties window? I tried using PetersToolsCommand > DotWithData, but that gave me a dot with the mesh name rather than the point names. Thank you!

Hi Grace - probably easy - can you post or send me an example input file?

Sorry for the delay! Iā€™ve attached a sample file and points list. test_points.txt (60 Bytes)

Hi Grace - @grace1 see how this works - labels are on by default for now, but you can turn them off at the command line. They can be off by default if that is better.
