3D scan mesh and point cloud issues: Cannot convert Objects.Geometry.Point to System.Double

Hi @jan-casas

Ok so the thing is, the Pointcloud that you can access from the Speckle Schema Node component is quite hidden because it’s not the most straightforward thing to setup.

I’ve attached a demo file for you to check out but, but in essence:

Points is not a list of point (counter intuitively) but a flat list of numbers representing the coordinates of said points in order: [x1,y1,z1,x2,y2,z2,...]

Colors are supposed to be unsigned ints, which grasshopper supports natively by just shoving the colors in an int param.
