Q: I want to use PCL in Paraview but I can't find the VTK in Paraview.
Aug 03, 2015 ahundt commented Aug 3, 2015. The part that finds GLEW is fairly broken on mac. The mac specific section can pretty much be eliminated and replaced with the simpler version below, at least as far as I can tell with my homebrew based install. Starting at line 442 of PCLConfig.cmake. Mar 19, 2020 O365 SharePoint - mapping drive on Mac OSX Hi, I would like to map an Office 365 SharePoint site as a drive on my Mac. To learn more, see Mapping a drive to a SharePoint library (Connect to Server) from Mac OSX Finder does not allow drag and drop of files into a SharePoint document Library. Aug 30, 2019 Cloudcompare is free, easy to use and provides nice visualisation of point clouds. It is available for Mac although I've never tried it personally so can't comment on how well it works. Cloudcompare can struggle with really big point clouds, so it'd be in your interest to cut your scans down to the areas of interest and probably do some sub. Point Cloud Library Prebuilt binaries for Mac OS X First, install the 3rd party libraries/dependencies by using our pre-compiled binaries. All the installers are provided as universal binaries. Point Cloud Library (PCL). Contribute to PointCloudLibrary/pcl development by creating an account on GitHub. We finally managed to compile the Point Cloud Library (PCL) for Mac OS X. You can start using them in your project by following the Using PCL in your own project tutorial. Point cloud library python tutorial (2). On a mac-book pro yosemite(10.10.3) i have done the following to get the pcl-tutorial (pcdwrite.cpp) running.
A:
A:error: GL/gl.h: No such file or directory error: GL/glu.h: No such file or directory
You have probably installed GLEW using homebrew or similar, same as in issue #465.The workaround is to install GLEW with macports (it does not have any dependencies => just download and install macports and sudo port install glew) OR do a custom cmake configuration and point it manually to the location of GL/GLEW in the current system.
Q: I am using a Kinect or Asus camera and the alignment of the RGB and depth images is off (i.e., there is a visible offset between the 3D points and the colors when I look at the cloud in pcd_viewer).*
As in the following image:!rgb_depth_alignment_problems.png!
A:Edit your SamplesConfig.xml configuration file. Be careful as you might have many copies of this file on your system, depending on how you installed OpenNI (I found the active one on my system here: /etc/primesense/SamplesConfig.xml)!Add the following to the depth node configuration:
Kinect works only with RegistrationType 2.Asus works only with RegistrationType 1.
Q: I can´t get pcl working with homebrew according to the description in the tutorial on the website.
A:/bin/sh: -c: line 0: syntax error '(' /bin/sh: -c: line 0: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/c++ ..
You have another version than the one specified in the tutorial which specifies1.3. run brew uninstall pcl and run brew install pcl --HEAD and the changethe line find_package(PCL 1.3 REQUIRED COMPONENTS common io) in CMakeList.txtto find_package(PCL 1.8 REQUIRED COMPONENTS common io).
Compiling PCL and its dependencies from MacPorts and source on Mac OS X
This tutorial explains how to build the Point Cloud Libraryfrom MacPorts and source on Mac OS X platforms, and tries to guide youthrough the download and building of all the required dependencies.
Prerequisites
Before getting started download and install the following prerequisites forMac OS X:

Building, Compiling and Installing PCL Dependencies
By now you should have downloaded and installed the latest versions of XCode andMacPorts under the :ref:`macosx_prerequisites` section. We'll be installing mostdependencies available via MacPorts and the rest will be built from source.
Absynth User Library Please note: The ABSYNTH, GUITAR RIG, and KONTAKT user libraries are now read-only archives. For more information, please read the Forum post. Nov 22, 2009 Mac? I'm new to Absynth. In regards to this sample issue, where is the default sample folder on Mac? I did a default install of Komplete 6 (but note I used an external drive for Kontakt and Battery sample libraries). The three 'Samples Directories' fields in Absynth. If you cannot find a library’s content folder, double check Native Access’ default install locations for Windows (C: Users Public Documents) or macOS (Macintosh HD Users Shared). If the library is there, move the folder to the Content location directory. I have relocated my Native Instruments folder onto an external hard drive. I was able to relocate most of the NI library so that my software recognizes the various libraries in the different location, but Massive presets won't appear for some reason. https://omgapt.netlify.app/absynth-library-location-mac.html.

After installed you can build the documentation:
Jul 06, 2007 In iTunes goto File/Export Library and save the library.xml file on your desktop. Close iTunes. Delete the 2 library files in the itunes folder. Restart iTunes. Your library will be empty. Goto file/import and choose the library file you just created in step one. Problem solved. I also posted this on the apple board at the link cwa107 gave. Mar 02, 2011 Right click on your library and select 'get album artwork'. This may take a while, but works very well. If iTunes doesn't find all the artworks, download a program to download the ones that iTunes couldn't find. (You can find this by googling a bit, maybe 'album artwork finder mac'. Cannot add to itunes library. But after iTunes 12.6.3 installation, you need firstly to rebuild your iTunes library. Or it would remind you with the message saying “The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes.” This is a little disappointing and annoying. How to fix this iTunes Library.itl cannot be read issue?

And you will also get to know the best software to manage iTunes. Oct 04, 2010 Open iTunes again, and it should show up that your library is empty, now, go to File-Import and load the file you exported in the second step. The Library import will take a while, but after it finishes you will have a new iTunes library with all your stuff in it.
Tutorials (Sphinx)
In addition to the API documentation there is also tutorial documentation builtusing Sphinx. The easiest way to get this installed is using pythonseasy_install:
The Sphinx documentation also requires the third party contrib extensionsphinxcontrib-doxylink (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/sphinxcontrib-doxylink)to reference the Doxygen built documentation.
To install from source you'll also need Mercurial:
