struggling to view Cloud Verticies in RGB Color
Posted: Mon Feb 16, 2026 10:52 pm
I'm very sorry to bother everyone with this question. The answer is probably obvious but I've been failing to find it for the past hour.
How can I view my point cloud in CC using the RGB info for each vertex?
I made a point cloud using Metashape, I exported it in OBJ and included the vertex color information.
I checked that the color information is included in the OBJ document by opening it in Notepad. It is, the file reads like this...
How can I display the cloud in CC such that I see the same colors as I did in Metashape?
I want to see the colors so that I can see the tape measure to determine how much to scale the file to match real world distances.
Thank you very much for your time!
