Export point and mesh locations / point clouds

Rhino Rhino for Windows
1

Hi all,
I’m looking to try to export the locations of end points and mesh objects from a Rhino file. Almost like a .ply that describes where the mesh is and where all my placed points are. In other words, I need a file that tells me the location of all my points and the mesh surface in the same coordinate system. Is there a good way to do this?

I tried using File>Export Selected to export as a ply but it seems to miss the curves I drew–

Hello - what comes to mind is ExtractPt on the mesh and send everything out as a points file. OBJ will give you all the information as well in text format but maybe not as easy to parse.
