Just wanted to revisit this; I have confirmed that this issue still
exists in 1.7.0 and in latest from GitHub. Any thoughts? Is there no
way to get RGB into an LAS file using liblas?
Thanks,
Ryan

It seems I am unable to read RGB color from points in point format 2.
Using the code snippets below, I write 10 points to a LAS file, with RGB
color, and then read it back. I can read back the coordinates properly
but not the color (I get RGB=0,0,0 for all points). Anything jump out
that I'm doing wrong? Could someone point me to some sample data in
point format 2 that I could use for testing?
Notes:
- This same code works properly using Point Format 0 and
Set/GetIntensity instead of Color.
- I am performing this test using libLAS 1.6.1 compiled for Windows
(same results in 32 and 64 bit).
Thanks in advance,
Ryan
