When I draw a line using the points I’ve obtained from a PLY file, some parts of the line are not displayed properly and seem to cross over from elsewhere.

**Hey there,**  
**There might be some inconsistency in how the points from the PLY file are being interpreted or connected when drawing the line. Could you please share more details about the process you’re using to handle the points and draw the line? Understanding your approach better will help in identifying the issue and finding a solution.** 🤔
