Only a portion of loaded points are displayed

Post by candrastefan »

Hello, I seem to have encountered a bug. When loading about 10 million points, only a fraction of them are displayed as shown in this screenshot Image. However, when I activate the segmentation mode, all the points are displayed Image. How can I get all the points to be displayed when not in segmentation mode? Thank you.

Hum, it seems to be a problem with the new vbo based storage of point clouds on the GPU side.

Can you disable it (the "Try to load clouds on the GPU..." option in the display settings?

And can you give us some détails about your configuration? (OS, graphic card, etc.).

Thanks

I disabled the "Try to load clouds on the GPU" in the display settings and it solved the problem. Thanks! Just for reference, I am using Linux Ubuntu 14.04 and my graphic card is Intel Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller.

Thanks for the feedback. Intel cards seem definitely to dislike what we do with VBOs ;). We should disable VBOs by default on any other card than NVidia's in fact...
