Error when importing ply

[joebain]

Hi, first I want to say thanks for publishing this addon, it looks super useful. I'm trying to import a ply from the polycam gaussian splatting app however I get an error when I do. I'm using blender 3.6.4 on Mac OS.

bpy.context.space_data.system_bookmarks_active = 3

If you are able to give me any help I'd really appreciate it. I'm not very familiar with blender scripting unfortunately otherwise I'd try to fix this myself.

Thanks for trying! I tested the add-on on Linux only, it seems the "GeometryNodes" key has a different name on MacOs / Windows. Will work on this hopefully this evening!

Hi, I have the same issue and same setup as @joebain . Looking forward to the update to try it out!

@alexandre01 Let me know if I can help in anyway! I'm not a coder but I work with lidar, photogrammetry quite a bit.

Should be fixed

It does work on mac now.

THANKS!

Doesn't seem to be OS dependent, I had the same error before fixing it on my own install (I thought it might be a version issue, I'm on Blender 3.6.0, Linux).

Yes yes it was due to something I had forgotten to push. Seems you found the 2/3 lines to edit to fix it
