Hello
If i run the line below in a cmd window, I get a .ply in the same coordinates as the original .dxf. Should'nt the exported .ply be in low/moved coordinates then?
If I remove the -DROP_GLOBAL_SHIFT flag I get the exact same result, does not seem like the -DROP_GLOBAL_SHIFT flag do anything at all.

-M_EXPORT_FMT PLY -PLY_EXPORT_FMT BINARY_LE -O -GLOBAL_SHIFT -442000 -6199000 0 myfile.dxf -DROP_GLOBAL_SHIFT -NO_TIMESTAMP -SAVE_MESHES

Ha! I think I know what's going on. Let me check something and I'll get back to you.

No, it was not what I thought... It works on my side.

Can you maybe share the DXF file with me? (cloudcompare [at] danielgm.net)

Thank's for your quick help

And by the way, thank's for the hard work on a really great program.

Ok the culprit was the DXF loader (which was wrongly locking the vertices) and another internal test that was too restrictive when handling locked vertices...

I'll try to update the online version soon. I'll keep you updated.

Ok the online 2.8 beta has just been updated. Thanks for the feedback.

Wow, quick work, will try it right away and see if it works.

Thank's Daniel

Worked as expected.

One strange thing though, i could not just use the dxf-name any longer. Had to put the whole path in.

Yes, I think that there has been a change in the default path (it was necessary for the Mac version I believe).
