"to_points.exe" the script version

'===========================================================================
' To Points
'
' Extracts hits from features and creates vectorpoints with
' the hits THEO's.
'
' The names are created from the source feature name and a number that
' represents the hit index.
'
' Idea taken from 'to_points.exe' from the Wilcox Script Repository
' which sadly doesn't work as expected.

  • I am sure it can, after this portion in the code:

    ' Get the probehits - XYZ  
      Set prbhit = PCDFeatCmd.GetHit(Fcntr, FHITDATA_CENTROID, FDATA_THEO, FDATA_PART, AlignID, PLANE_TOP)
      hX = CDbl(prbhit.X)
      hY = CDbl(prbhit.Y)
      hZ = CDbl(prbhit.Z)
      ' Get the probehits - IJK
      Set prbhit = PCDFeatCmd.GetHit(Fcntr, FHITDATA_VECTOR, FDATA_THEO, FDATA_PART, AlignID, PLANE_TOP)
      hI = CDbl(prbhit.X)
      hJ = CDbl(prbhit.Y)
      hK = CDbl(prbhit.Z)


    The XYZ-values are available to you through hX, hY, hZ and the vector values through hI, hJ, hK so you can do whatever with them. Just replace the vectorpoint generation with code for export to Excel...
