Using all Scanned points to create a Plane

Ok usually I make alot of single points to make a plane from a bottom side, to create a plane, but I need to be a lot more precise in this situation. So I have created 2 Plane Adaptive Scans and I want to combine the 2 for flatness. Now since it's a scan, one is 140 points, the other 151 points, is there an easy way to extract them to create a plane? I know how to extract all the points, or at least when I hover over it, it shows all the point results. But When I plug this into a Generic Plane not so good. Maybe I'm going down the wrong path. Kp61dude!, or JEFMAN, or DAN_M or bfire85

ASSIGN/V1=PLN_A1.HIT[1..140].Z
ASSIGN/V2=PLN_A2.HIT[1..151].Z

Create a feature set with the two scans.

Once the feature set is in your edit window, you will have to do some hard coding.

PLN_A1.HIT[1..PLN_A1.NUMHITS]
PLN_A2.HIT[1..PLN_A2.NUMHITS]

^^Thats what you have to hardcore the feature set inputs to look like.

Make the plane out of the feature set

Should be good from there

Thank you Danny boy, so simple totally dismissed feature set. Holy crap

You can also create the plane directly with the same text.
Did you try directly creating the plane by selectins both scans, and select BF (sometimes, it automatically select "me=id plane when there are 2 features)

Don't it need a .Z at the end?

You can construct a plane out of one of those at first.

Once you have your constructed plane, change the REV to BF or BFRE, then manually type in the PLN_A1.HIT[1..PLN_A1.NUMHITS], then after the next comma, type in PLN_A2.HIT[1..PLN_A2.NUMHITS].

Save yourself the assignments.

theo/<0,0,0>,<0,0,1>

What the crap with the lowercase code? Every so often, it does this. Undocumented enhancement...

This is working, Thank you Barry It doesn't allow BF, but it does allow BFRE
