Importante

This feature is currently experimental and not available in current releases.

Point Cloud

Point clouds can be used to represent 3D scans and in the future can represent particles. Each point can store data in a set of Attributes.

Example of a monkey object represented as a point cloud.

Attributes

The Attributes panel contains different point cloud characteristics such as the position and size of points. Use the List View to manage attributes.
