PlyEdit: Import Align Combine

Import: Load in another PLY file as a separate object. Fig 2 shows the different coloring applied when multiple objects are loaded. As you can see, its possible to have many meshes loaded, but only the 2nd "red" object can be moved around or sculpted.

Replace: If two meshes are loaded, a file selection window pops up, and the PLY selected will replace the 2nd mesh. If three meshes are loaded, the 2nd is deleted and the 3rd is moved into that position. This tool is normally used to substitute a hirez mesh for a decimated copy that has already been positioned in the scene.

Cut: Removes <G> key marked faces from the 1st object and puts them into a new object.

Copy: Copies <G> key marked faces into a new object.

Roll: Changes the object ordering by one step. If there's only 2 objects, this swaps the 1st and 2nd objects around.

Paste: Copies the faces in the 2nd object into the 1st object, then deletes the 2nd object.

Blend: Smoothly blends overlapping faces in the 2nd object into the 1st object, then deletes the 2nd object.

Delete: Delete the last object.
