Good afternoon! Your add-on Point Cloud Visualizer is amazing but I try animate a presentation of the true models with cloud points references and do the render is a problem, no for the points. The original poly model that I have aligned isn't rendered, neither after delete the empty used for import the point cloud. Any suggestion? Thank you. Apologize for my english.

hi, i don't understand. 'The cloud persist after delete them' - you mean when you delete object it is still drawn on screen? or something else?
with the rendering, it is quite limited. basically it renders the same thing it draws on screen, only points without anything else. you you want points and some meshes, you have to render them separate and composite over. the problem will be that points render will lose depth and i don't think you will like the result. but that's how it is. rendering both together would require either modification of blender itself or whole new render engine just for that..

as i said, rendering is limited to points only. if you want render points with the rest of scene in cycles or other render engine, convert it to mesh (or particles system) using PCV > Convert panel, then it will be renderable in cycles, colors will be assigned as vertex colors and can be used in its material.
