"Hi Steven, please clarify any further. What´s your aim? A nurbs Surface? A mesh Surface? Do you want to clean up the resulting point cloud? If you're using any good 3d scanner e.g. NextEngine, they're usually delivered with a pretty…"

Selecting outside points of a point cloud

Hello,I am in a studio that is using 3D scanners to generate custom furniture for the people we scan. Currently I have a point cloud that represents the scanned object (person). I am trying to figure out how to select the points that are on the outside of the point cloud... points that are the extents of the point cloud. I attempted to draw a curve and use the Closest Points component with little luck. I'd like to select the points without having to draw any extra curves in rhino. Let me know…See More

Genome Database "table doesn't exist"

I followed your latest tutorial on creating a genome database and I'm having a bit of trouble. After creating the database and then inserting the data into the data base the MySQL Command component says the table genome.mygenes_genome doesn't exist.Is this a MySQL issue or am I still missing something? Thanks for your help.See More

Slingshot error

I apologize if this has been answered before, but I cannot seem to fix this error when creating genome database and using the MySql Command component. I keep getting the runtime error: 1. Solution exception:Could not load file or assembly 'MySql.Data, Version=6.5.4.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.Is there a problem with my MySql connector version? Also, I don't know that I've installed Slingshot…See More
