Points Workbench
The Points module is made to give you specific tools for working with point clouds. It is still in development.
These tools are already available:
- Import Point Cloud: will import coordinates for 3D-points from a text file
- Export Point Cloud: will export coordinates for 3D-points to a text file
- Polygon Pick: to do
The coordinates of the points have to be stored in a text file.
The ending of the file has to be ".asc".
The coordinates have to use point (NOT comma) and have to be separated by a space.
Of course you could also use the draft workbench within FreeCAD and connect the points using draft elements.
Using snap-mode "end-point" will ensure snapping to the points.
