NameDescription
static FromGeometry(Geometry)Create a new PointCloud instance from a geometry object
static FromGeometry(Geometry, int)Create a new point cloud instance from a geometry object. Density is the number of points per unit triangle(Unit triangle are the triangle with maximum surface area from the mesh)
AddElement(VertexElement)Adds an existing vertex element to current geometry(Inherited from Geometry.)
CreateElement(VertexElementType)Creates a vertex element with specified type and add it to the geometry.(Inherited from Geometry.)
CreateElement(VertexElementType, MappingMode, ReferenceMode)Creates a vertex element with specified type and add it to the geometry.(Inherited from Geometry.)
CreateElementUV(TextureMapping)Creates a VertexElementUV with given texture mapping type.(Inherited from Geometry.)
CreateElementUV(TextureMapping, MappingMode, ReferenceMode)Creates a VertexElementUV with given texture mapping type.(Inherited from Geometry.)
FindProperty(string)Finds the property. It can be a dynamic property (Created by CreateDynamicProperty/SetProperty) or native property(Identified by its name)(Inherited from A3DObject.)
GetBoundingBox()Gets the bounding box of current entity in its object space coordinate system.(Inherited from Entity.)
