Hi Andreas, MOI is focused on being a quick streamlined drawing and modeling tool.

I'm not surprised that you're having difficulty processing point clouds with it because that is quite outside of what MOI is designed to do.

Generating a model from point cloud scan data or polygon mesh data requires a substantially different "Reverse Engineering" toolset.

I'm sorry but MOI just isn't the right tool to use for that type of work.

Thanks,
- Michael

Hey Michael, thanks for the quick response.
The point cloud data would not be used to generate a model from it. The idea is to simply use the point cloud as a visual overlay/intersection as you model in the traditional way.
But I understand that native cloud data support is beyond the scope of what MOI is meant for. I thought it might be still worth asking just in case. I will continue to use MOI for 3D print models because enjoy modeling with it too much compared to other apps. Might have to import much sparser point clouds and perhaps scale down the bitmap that represents points in MOI.

Cheers,
Andreas
