Yep, I’m afraid I’m a complete VEX convert now. I never used to be! Cris, don’t mind me posting stuff like that, I’m just doing it in case it’s useful to anyone who’s trying to get into VEX. Actually, when I was learning to do all the point cloud stuff, I found it useful to see the VEX when I was trying to understand how to hook up the pointcloud VOPs. I (still) don’t think it’s obvious how to do it, especially when you start thinking about if it’s necessary to use pcclose() and where that should be wired.
It’s one of the reasons I moved to VEX, things like “loops" and “if” statements are much easier to understand in VEX than VOPs. > On 26 Apr 2017, at 19:07, Steven Caron <[email protected]> wrote: > > Thanks guys!
