Change faro point cloud color after camera based cloud merge
« on: April 06, 2022, 11:30:39 AM »
Hi!

I've merge an e57 faro cloud with a Mavic one.

From the Preference menu I've changed the color of the faro one.

After merging it appears black. I performed Select points by color, and???

Was thinking about a py script. Any idea?

Many thanks!

Hello tinybear,

Are you sure that the imported point cloud has colors? Such purple-blue color usually means that there are no point cloud colors available. So you may try to colorize the imported dense cloud points from the aligned images before merging.

Hi Alexey!

Thanks for your quick reply.

No it's actually black. However I managed to colorize the faro cloud with cloud compare and reimport it in las format in Metashape.

I was actually trying to find a trick to change the color of a group of points in MS directly  ;)

Now that's perfect. Faro cloud colorized by aligned cameras  ;D
