ok, i thought something like that....thanks for clearification
Our currently visualized point cloud is part of a very large one, and the global coordinate system has such a large offset.... Rescaling is an option but then the later processing chain results in wrong data (e.g. measurements have Values, needs also be scaled). So I would need to add a kind of field data "Data Offset" and "Data Scale" which every later added Filter needs to read (e.g. Ruler or some of our custom measurement filters). Is there anyting already mentioned for this in Paraview? I think I should not be the first one with that problem....

VTK does not do anything special in handling large coordinates and passes them to OpenGL directly. So currently, you have to handle this yourself by rescaling your data.

It is important that point data type is double since our values have a huge offset, e.g. Coordinate in float: 3376382.75 -325198.59375 -121298.125 Coordinate in double: 3376382.849028525874 -325198.60899497801438 -121298.12806414699298 (same ASCII input file of type double, above printings come from spreadsheet view so loading is correct) (all my points have such small changes, I definitely can see those small changes in 3d) The problem is: I load the dataset once in float and once in double ( I checked result in spreadsheed view) I cannot see any differences in 3d renderer when I swap visibility of float and double input (but you can see in spreadsheet). Is the double precision rendering not correct/not supported? Any ideas?
