Proposed new feature or change
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am using o3d.visualization.VisualizerWithEditing for a point cloud interaction tool. When I use Shift + Left Click to pick a point, Open3D automatically renders a large golden/yellow sphere at the picked location.
This sphere is too large relative to my point cloud details and obstructs the view. I tried to disable it by setting opt.show_coordinate_frame = False, but the sphere persists.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like an option to:
- Completely disable the visual feedback (the golden sphere) during point picking.
- Or allow customization of the sphere's radius/color via the API.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Currently, I have to scale my entire point cloud up (Gulliver Transformation) to make the fixed-size sphere appear relatively smaller, which is not an ideal workflow.
Additional context
- Open3D Version: 0.19.0
- OS: Windows 10
- Code snippet:
# Even with show_coordinate_frame=False, the sphere appears on click
vis = o3d.visualization.VisualizerWithEditing()
vis.create_window()
opt = vis.get_render_option()
opt.show_coordinate_frame = False
vis.run()
