Import large points

Hello,

 

I want to import .XYZ file and I suspect that because there are a lot of points(more than 100,000) cause could not to import. I tried to just copy several points from the file and they showed probably. Is there a way to import a lot of points?

I'm not aware of any point number restrictions - at least for that number of points. Can you share the file so someone can try to reproduce the issue?

 

If you are just needing to create a surface (and unless there is a specific need to import the points) just create the surface directly using the points file which speeds up things considerably
