Points File (.txt) Export
Saves points to a delimited text file.
Note
- Both point coordinates and RGB color values (x,y,z,r,g,b) are exported.
- For point objects, the color is taken from the point object's color.
- For point cloud objects, if the point cloud has point colors, these colors are used. Otherwise, all points use the point cloud object's color.

- In the File name box, select or type a file name.

- If the file type creates only mesh objects, in the Polygon Mesh Objects dialog box, specify the mesh settings.
Options | |
---|---|
Save small |
Though clearing the render meshes makes the file smaller, it will shade and render more slowly the next time you open the file. |
Save geometry only |
Saves geometry objects only. No layers, materials, properties, notes, or units settings are saved. This is similar to exporting the objects. A new file is made, but it does not become your active Rhino model. |
Save textures |
Embeds external textures used by materials, environments and decals into the model. |
Save plugin data | Saves data attached to objects or the document by plug-in applications. |
