PLY colors not apply - danielefit - 10-21-2015
How to display colors of a PLY mesh?
My code use assimp importer:
ContentVisual.Source = new Uri(fileName, UriKind.Absolute);
Camera1.Refresh();
XAML:
<Viewport3D Name="MainViewport">
<assimpVisuals:AssimpModelVisual3D x:Name="ContentVisual" />
<ModelVisual3D>
<ModelVisual3D.Content>
<Model3DGroup>
<AmbientLight Color="#333333"/>
</Model3DGroup>
</ModelVisual3D.Content>
</ModelVisual3D>
</Viewport3D>

AssimpModelVisual3D should display colors that are read with assimp importer.
Please check your file with the official AssimpViewer that you can get from http://www.open3mod.com/
If the model has colors there or if it is shown differently as when using AssimpModelVisual3D, then there might be a problem in the AssimpModelVisual3D. In this case please send me the ply (or other file) to my email or with using Feedback page - http://www.ab4d.com/Feedback.aspx

I have checked the ply file that you have sent and I see that the file uses per-vertex colors - this can be seen from the first few lines of the ply file:

Per-vertex colors are not supported in WPF. There is nothing I can do in Ab3d.PowerToys to support that.
Please check if you can export the model with using textures instead of per-vertex colors.
