I can create a PointCloud object in the blender python API via pc_data = bpy.data.pointclouds.new(name) pc_obj = bpy.data.objects.new(name, pc_data) bpy.context.collection.objects.link(pc_obj) Problem is, that does not give me any points to work with. There is stuff like pc_data.points.foreach_set("vector", my_np_array.ravel()) and pc_data.attributes.new(name='position', type='FLOAT_VECTOR', domain='POINT').foreach_set("vector", my_np_array.ravel()), which all seems like a working API but fails because the PointCloud is empty and I somehow need to resize it to the size that I need it. But how? I have also looked into hacks, for example using the operators/OPS/UI API. The irony is that I haven't even found a way to spawn points in the UI.
