how to create a python-based plugin that will print an object's details #127

Hi!

I am trying to script a python based plugin that will print to CloudCompare's console an object's scalar classification after the user 'clicks'/selects the the object in CloudCompare's 3D View.

The way I am trying to go about this is scripting the command in a python file (the file will have a listening function for mouse clicks) and then use CloudCompare's Python File Runner to run the file. I haven't had much success on getting this to work. Any help/suggestions/ideas on how I can get this to work?

Thanks in advance!

I don't think that's possible, or if it is, it's probably quite complex to do

What easily work is having the user click the action to trigger the print after it selected entities
