Hi,
I'm trying to save file as LAS cloud (*.las*.laz) format but error keeps popping out it says "PDAL exception 'writers.las: Invalid value '0' for argument 'minor_version'." Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I have a similar error. Did you get to fix it?

I haven't. I'm saving my files in .e57 format.

What are the characteristics/features of your cloud? (it has scalar fields I guess? Are they standard with respect to the LAS format or not? Do you have maybe RGB colors? etc.). You can send me a sample file (as a BIN file) if you want me to debug this properly (--> admin[at]cloudcompare.org))

This error is happening because the file you openned must be a LAS version 1.0.
When a LAS file is openned, CloudCompare remembers the minor_version (here '0') and saves the file with the same minor_version, however pdal does'nt seem to be able to save LAS files with version 1.0.
So when saving a LAS 1.0 we should bump the version of the saved file to 1.2, the most common version used.
