### My Question

Hey every one

I have created a point cloud having x y z r g b and wanted to save it in a format that could get opened on Rhino.
using this opetions didn't help and the file I create doesn't show anything when I open it directly on Rhino

` o3d.io.write_point_cloud(f"{output_dir}/total_{pointer_type}.ply", total_pc, write_ascii=True)`

but when I reopen this file in MeshLab and save it again in .ply format it can be imported in Rhino and everything is working fine.
how can I do that directly using the code?
