Viewing large las files should absolutely be possible (this was the main design goal for displaz!) and 2GB should not be a problem. It sounds like either (a) you have...

Yeah, it'd be great for us hackers :-) The main question in my mind is how to distribute scripts and have end users able to run them. Maybe Qt Script...

Having a persistent displaz window (using socket IPC at startup) might be even better for some use cases.

Yes, definitely use `QSettings` here. It's a simple matter of connecting it up to things as necessary. Getting it to work smoothly with the dynamic and user-configurable shader parameter GUI...

Interesting, I haven't considered that. However, I don't think it would help much here: I'm trying to keep the UI simple by doing everything in the same 3D viewport. Forcing...

Something like that potentially makes sense. The potree project uses a similar scheme, http://potree.org/demo/potree_2014.12.30/examples/philly.html Caveat - the current displaz panning scheme is jarring/disorienting, but it's relatively precise and efficient if...

It'd be particularly useful for point cloud data which has no intensity or other colouration. For aerial lidar style data we'd potentially want occlusion rays only for the upper hemisphere...

Yes, I was planning to add a channel to the point cloud and prebake the AO in there. That way we're not restricted to using GPU techniques only. On the...

Great!

Hi Andy, thanks for looking at this. The middle mouse button problem is definitely something that needs improving. After playing with this for ten minutes, I'm afraid it drives me...
