Sorry, this has been sitting in my inbox for a while now.<br>
<br>
I tried reading the PLY file you cited [1] with ParaView 5.3. It seems<br>
to read the points just fine.<br>
<br>
What might be confusing is that since there is no cell data, the<br>
points are not rendered in the default "Surface" representation. In<br>
the Properties panel, set the "Representation" type to 3D Glyphs, the<br>
Glyph Type to Sphere, and the Radius to 0.05. You'll see the points as<br>
pictured in the attached image.<br>
