Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted May 31, 2016 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted May 31, 2016 I was able to convert .ply files using MeshLab, but I can not recall if I was converting them to another file format or if I wanted a 3D solid at the time. I am fairly certain it can export to .xyz which Vectorworks can import directly as a point cloud object, as well as export to .3ds if you just need the mesh. https://sourceforge.net/projects/meshlab/ Quote Link to comment
