From: Matadem

Hello
I usually import points to Moi3d from text file.
but now I have a bunch of point in Moi I want to export to text...how can I do this? I want to edit and import back.

One more thing attached I have a point...the point above it is 37Meters up.
but on the tab below I cannot see the z up of 37M. depends on the view...
Where and how can I easily change the z number to move the point to new coordinates?
I thought I would be able to see it in the details tab (the point is selected)
so basically the x2,y4,z0 I want to change it to x2,y4,z37 to move and or create a new point.

Tnx!

Hi Matadem,

For exporting points out to a text file use the SavePointFile script from here:
https://moi3d.com/download/scripts/PetrsMoiPage/PetrsMoiPage.htm#SavePointFile

Use the version that says that it works on Mac/OSX, even if you're on Windows. It's this one:

For seeing the coordinates of a point and modifying them, use the Move command in the v5 beta version.

Select the point, run Transform > Move, at the prompt for "Pick base point" snap onto the point and then when it prompts you to "Pick target point", there is a Set XYZ button shown, push that:



The x, y, z coordinates will be shown and you can modify them:
