 The example model can be found in the GroIMP example explorer (File/Example projects) under Point cloud/branch.
+===== Preparation =====
+Before you start modeling with point clouds it is recommended to do two settings:
+   - On the view3d in the menu view/navigators and select Point cloud handlers. This stops the 3d view from visiting every point for highlighting which improves the speed.
+   - In the preferences, go on User Interface/view3d and set the resolution to 2. This will give the visitor the instruction to not visit any point but use the mesh collector. Which makes the visualization simpler and faster.
