Hi,
I cannot find a description of the look of a xyz-file which City Engine likes/wants to have. Anyone an idea? Did some tests with header, without, with tabs, ...
Would be very helpful to know it - Thanks for a hint!


PS: Sorry, posted my question first in the wrong forum

hi !

this is indeed not very well documented, here's a few inputs :


* we read xyz as regular grid with equidistant square grid (point clouds not supported)
* data MUST match Scene Coordinate System (SCS)
* points must be stored with spaces


let me know if this helps.
