Quick Question (Time Sensitive)

Lukas
I am wondering why I can't type at the end of the line when I am keying in features for a constructed set. I click between the two commas and try to type and it does nothing. I think it's not working because I've reached the end of that line. I need to key in these features though...

How can I add the dollar sign and go to the next line?

Also, why is there only one comma when I try to key in a feature for a Point Cloud? ahhhhhhhhhhhh Disappointed
  • Can someone confirm: including a circle in a constructed set and then dimensioning profile of a surface of that constructed set wouldn't really give you accurate profile of a surface readings of the circle hitpoints? What would that do, look at the center of the circle and compare that to the model?

    I guess another way I could word the question: What happens when you dimension profile of a surface of a circle? Does it look at the center of the circle and compare that to the model or does it look at each individual hitpoint?
    I guess next time I'll program in points-only so I can simply select all the points Neutral face

    From my recollection, it goes to the center point. I remember having to setup the featured set using the hit points of the circle to obtain correct surface profile.
  • Thanks so much. Everyone has been a huge help.
  • Not sure if this is version dependent, but when I profile the autocircle by itself, the graphical analysis shows it's profiling each hit. But when I create a feature set from the circle and another point, the graphical analysis shows it's only reporting the center of the circle.
  • just some information.... At least for constructions and 2020R2 SP9 and higher (older versions assume 1 as end index).

    To use all the hits I don't think you need to use feature.HIT[1...feature.NUMHITS].
    You could use feature.HIT[..] and pcdmis will assume 1 through NUMHITS.
    If for some reason you do not want to start at 1 you could feature.HIT[2..].

    If no start is defined 1 is assumed. If no end is defined NUMHITS is assumed.
    This will save on edit window space.
