Hi,

I need to visualize a pointcloud in RS but I don’t know how to do it. I create a PointCloud, assign points to the Points property and make it visible with Visible property but nothing is shown. How to draw it in the station?

Thanks in advance,  
HM

Hi HM,

You also have to add it to the station, e.g.

station.PointClouds.Add(pointCloud);

Alternatively, you can draw a temporary (non-persistent) point cloud using

station.TemporaryGraphics.DrawPointCloud(…);
