Returns

List<Object3D>

A List<T>.

Load(Stream)

Loads a ply file from the Stream.

public void Load(Stream s)

Parameters

s Stream

The stream containing the ply file.

Load(string)

public void Load(string filepath)

Parameters

filepath string

Read(Stream, ModelInfo)

Reads the model from the specified stream.

public override List<Object3D>? Read(Stream s, ModelInfo info = default)

Parameters

s Stream

The stream.

info ModelInfo

Returns

List<Object3D>

A List<T>

Read(string)

Reads the model from the specified path.

public List<Object3D>? Read(string path)

Parameters

path string

The path.
