Single precision in STL and PLY
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
STL and PLY only reads floating point values, double point values are not supported.
Additionally the PLY doku tells that the data type string should be "float64" and not "double" as implemented in VTK on vtkPLY.cxx on line 87.... so "double" encoded ascii PLY's were not loaded (not in float anyway), you have to rename float64 to double in PLY....
I am using VTK from Praview 6.3.0 RC1 64bit
