setz Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I'm not at my computer but if you select the points and export as obj you should be able to open the file in a text editor to get the point xyz values. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpil Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 is it possible to assign a name or number to each point to easily identify the points in the text file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setz Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 If I have an object, select the points, copy, paste, hide the object, then export obj. The file should contain the names of the point objects. If you want to custom name each point, right click on them in the modeling window and name in attributes option or select from the object palette and rename there before exporting. You can also use Pylons script to rename them easily. o object_34 v 0.00000 -1.473200 -5.943600 p 1 o object_35 v 0.00000 -0.50800 -5.943600 p 2 Importing into a spreadsheet you should be able to create columns as needed with the import translator and delete the unnecessary data more easily.
