Loader

XYZLoader

A loader for the XYZ format.

XYZ is a very simple format for storing point clouds. The layouts XYZ (points) and XYZRGB (points + colors) are supported.

Code Example

const loader = new XYZLoader();
const geometry = await loader.loadAsync( 'models/xyz/helix_201.xyz' );
geometry.center();
const vertexColors = ( geometry.hasAttribute( 'color' ) === true );
const material = new THREE.PointsMaterial( { size: 0.1, vertexColors: vertexColors } );
const points = new THREE.Points( geometry, material );
scene.add( points );

Import

XYZLoader is an addon, and must be imported explicitly, see Installation#Addons.

import { XYZLoader } from 'three/addons/loaders/XYZLoader.js';
