<SerializableAttribute>
Public Class PointCloud
	Inherits GeometryBase
	Implements IEnumerable(Of PointCloudItem), IEnumerable

The PointCloud type exposes the following members.

	Name	Description
	PointCloud()	Initializes a new instance of the PointCloud class that is empty.
	PointCloud(IEnumerable(Point3d))	Initializes a new instance of the PointCloud class, copying the content from a set of points.
	PointCloud(PointCloud)	Initializes a new instance of the PointCloud class, copying (Merge) the content of another pointcloud.
	PointCloud(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)	Binds with the Rhino default serializer to support object persistence.

	Name	Description
	ContainsColors	Gets a value indicating whether or not the points in this pointcloud have colors assigned to them.
	ContainsHiddenFlags	Gets a value indicating whether or not the points in this pointcloud have hidden flags assigned to them.
	ContainsNormals	Gets a value indicating whether or not the points in this pointcloud have normals assigned to them.
	Count	Gets the number of points in this pointcloud.
	HasBrepForm	Returns true if the Brep.TryConvertBrep function will be successful for this object (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	HasUserData	Gets true if this class has any custom information attached to it through UserData. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	HiddenPointCount	Gets the number of points that have their Hidden flag set.
	IsDeformable	true if object can be accurately modified with "squishy" transformations like projections, shears, and non-uniform scaling. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	IsDocumentControlled	If true this object may not be modified. Any properties or functions that attempt to modify this object when it is set to "IsReadOnly" will throw a NotSupportedException. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	IsValid	Tests an object to see if it is valid. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	Item	Gets the item at the given index.
	ObjectType	Useful for switch statements that need to differentiate between basic object types like points, curves, surfaces, and so on. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	UserData	List of custom information that is attached to this class. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	UserDictionary	Dictionary of custom information attached to this class. The dictionary is actually user data provided as an easy to use sharable set of information. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	UserStringCount	Gets the amount of user strings. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)

	Name	Description
	Add(Point3d)	Append a new point to the end of the list.
	Add(Point3d, Vector3d)	Append a new point to the end of the list.
	Add(Point3d, Color)	Append a new point to the end of the list.
	Add(Point3d, Vector3d, Color)	Append a new point to the end of the list.
	AddRange(IEnumerable(Point3d))	Appends a collection of points to this point cloud.
	AddRange(IEnumerable(Point3d), IEnumerable(Vector3d))	Appends a collection of points and normal vectors to this point cloud.
	AddRange(IEnumerable(Point3d), IEnumerable(Color))	Appends a collection of points and normal vectors to this point cloud.
	AddRange(IEnumerable(Point3d), IEnumerable(Vector3d), IEnumerable(Color))	Appends a collection of points and normal vectors to this point cloud.
	AppendNew	Appends a new PointCloudItem to the end of this point cloud.
	ClearColors	Destroys the color information in this point cloud.
	ClearHiddenFlags	Destroys the hidden flag information in this point cloud.
	ClearNormals	Destroys the normal vector information in this point cloud.
	ClosestPoint	Returns index of the closest point in the point cloud to a given test point.
	ComponentIndex	If this piece of geometry is a component in something larger, like a BrepEdge in a Brep, then this function returns the component index. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	ConstructConstObject	Assigns a parent object and a subobject index to this. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	Dispose()	Actively reclaims unmanaged resources that this instance uses. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	Dispose(Boolean)	For derived class implementers. This method is called with argument true when class user calls Dispose(), while with argument false when the Garbage Collector invokes the finalizer, or Finalize() method. You must reclaim all used unmanaged resources in both cases, and can use this chance to call Dispose on disposable fields if the argument is true. Also, you must call the base virtual method within your overriding method. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	Duplicate	Constructs a deep (full) copy of this object. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	DuplicateShallow	Constructs a light copy of this object. By "light", it is meant that the same underlying data is used until something is done to attempt to change it. For example, you could have a shallow copy of a very heavy mesh object and the same underlying data will be used when doing things like inspecting the number of faces on the mesh. If you modify the location of one of the mesh vertices, the shallow copy will create a full duplicate of the underlying mesh data and the shallow copy will become a deep copy. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	EnsurePrivateCopy	If you want to keep a copy of this class around by holding onto it in a variable after a command completes, call EnsurePrivateCopy to make sure that this class is not tied to the document. You can call this function as many times as you want. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize()	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize()	Passively reclaims unmanaged resources when the class user did not explicitly call Dispose(). (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	GetBoundingBox(Boolean)	Boundingbox solver. Gets the world axis aligned boundingbox for the geometry. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	GetBoundingBox(Plane)	Aligned Boundingbox solver. Gets the plane aligned boundingbox. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	GetBoundingBox(Transform)	Aligned Boundingbox solver. Gets the world axis aligned boundingbox for the transformed geometry. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	GetBoundingBox(Plane, Box)	Aligned Boundingbox solver. Gets the plane aligned boundingbox. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	GetColors	Copy all the point colors in this point cloud to an array.
	GetEnumerator	Gets an enumerator that allows to modify each pointcloud point.
	GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetNormals	Copy all the normal vectors in this point cloud to an array.
	GetObjectData	Populates a System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo with the data needed to serialize the target object. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	GetPoints	Copy all the point coordinates in this point cloud to an array.
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetUserString	Gets user string from this geometry. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	GetUserStrings	Gets a copy of all (user key string, user value string) pairs attached to this geometry. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	Insert(Int32, Point3d)	Inserts a new point into the point list.
	Insert(Int32, Point3d, Vector3d)	Inserts a new point into the point list.
	Insert(Int32, Point3d, Color)	Inserts a new point into the point list.
	Insert(Int32, Point3d, Vector3d, Color)	Inserts a new point into the point list.
	InsertNew	Inserts a new PointCloudItem at a specific position of the point cloud.
	InsertRange	Append a collection of points to this point cloud.
	IsValidWithLog	Determines if an object is valid. Also provides a report on errors if this object happens not to be valid. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	MakeDeformable	If possible, converts the object into a form that can be accurately modified with "squishy" transformations like projections, shears, an non-uniform scaling. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	MemoryEstimate	Computes an estimate of the number of bytes that this object is using in memory. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	Merge	Copies the point values of another pointcloud into this one.
	NonConstOperation	For derived classes implementers. Defines the necessary implementation to free the instance from being const. (Inherited from CommonObject.)
	OnSwitchToNonConst	Is called when a non-const operation occurs. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	RemoveAt	Remove the point at the given index.
	Rotate	Rotates the object about the specified axis. A positive rotation angle results in a counter-clockwise rotation about the axis (right hand rule). (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	Scale	Scales the object by the specified factor. The scale is centered at the origin. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	SetUserString	Attach a user string (key,value combination) to this geometry. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Transform	Transforms the geometry. If the input Transform has a SimilarityType of OrientationReversing, you may want to consider flipping the transformed geometry after calling this function when it makes sense. For example, you may want to call Flip() on a Brep after transforming it. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	Translate(Vector3d)	Translates the object along the specified vector. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
	Translate(Double, Double, Double)	Translates the object along the specified vector. (Inherited from GeometryBase.)
