Can you provide more detailed installation guide

[XGL96]

I'm very interested in your reconstruction function, but I haven't used c#, rhino or grasshopper. According to your installation instructions, when I went to "Add reference paths (properties of C# project Scan2BIM)", I didn't know which folder to choose. I tried "C:\Users\stereye\AppData\Roaming\Grasshopper\Libraries", but it didn't seem to work, and there were something like

Could not find type or namespace name 'grasshopper' (missing using directive or assembly reference)

Other steps also have some problems, such as whether to directly put “ Elefront.gha " and " ElefrontProperties.rhp " in" C:\Users...\AppData\Roaming\Grasshopper\Libraries\EleFront "?
Your toolbox looks fantastic. I will be appreciative if you can give us more details about how to use.

Hi @Saiga1105,
I want to congratulate you for the great work, I am very inspired by the grasshopper component, and I am keen to test it and write a LinkedIn article to showcase a couple of examples and reference the research papers.

I have followed the installation instructions, however one project reference path is not available, which is Scan2BIM_Matlab,
Therefore I cloned the Scan2BIM_Matlab project from your repository but since it doesn't have a .net project i couldn't load it, should I build the C project to generate the .dll or is there any other way to do so ??

I will attach an image that shows the missing reference:

Hi,

How nice that you want to build on top of this code (it is a bit clunky though).
The paper describes what you can do with the code.

You are missing a dll that I built from matlab. Just download the following files and reference to them.
Note that you need to install the correct matlab runtime (else the compiled matlab functions cannot work).

These files are actually also in the bin folder in the github:

If you have any questions, let me know!

Mvg,

Hi @Saiga1105,

Thank you so much for sharing the .dll folder, I will test asap, and keep you posted,

Best

Hi @Saiga1105 again,
Thank you for sharing the missing dlls it really helped me build the solution, however the grasshopper example files on lunch, they complain for missing components, i am afraid they are not compatible with the latest code solution, is i would like to request a complete example folder that is compatible with the code so i can base my research on. Do you think this is possible?

The missing components are from other libraries. See the main page for their installation: * Install EleFront and MeshEdit (put it in C:\Users...\AppData\Roaming\Grasshopper\Libraries) Mvg, Dr. Ing.
