Blender Version

Short description of error
[Please fill out a short description of the error here]
Hi! I downloaded the 2.92 Beta version and I wonder that:

"Point Cloud Object" is not available from objects list (SHIFT + A). Where is it and how can I add a new point cloud volume into 3D View?
I activated "Experimental" tab into Properties, but many options was removed. In particular, "Add Object Tool" is not available. How to activate it?

Thanx.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
[Please describe the exact steps needed to reproduce the issue]
[Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible)]

Point cloud was moved back to the experimental features by commit 82645ff739

That the experimental options are not available in the 2.92 beta is intentional, see cfc9b95abd

You will still see those experimental features in the daily builds of 2.93 .

@blenderhighschool Since these features are still in development I can't give you a definitive answer in what release version they will be included in. For now they are planned to be included in 2.93 as far as I'm aware. What I wrote in the previous comment, that experimental options are not available in 2.92, applies to several experimental features including the Add Object Tool.

do you need to have the experimental to add a point cloud object?
