Menu: Files->Import->XYZ points...
With this option it is possible to read a set of geometric points. This format is ASCII and consists the coordinates of the points separated with spaces.
Note: If only 2 coordinates are specified, z=0 is assumed.
If 'Automatic collapse after import' was set, after the import near points will be joined, The variable ImportTolerance (see Preferences) controls the joining distance.
The file browser allow some extra "Import options". Usually these options are hidden, press the arrow icon to show them
Collapse: It is possible to set that a collapse must be done after the importation, and its parameters (automatic or specified tolerance). If the collection of points is very big a collapse could be intersting to subsample them, and to avoid very close or repeated coordinates.
Triangulate: If this option is set then a Delaunay triangulation of the points will be done. (this triangulation is made in the xy plane projection)
