Keyboard: TRIANGULATE


This function allows you to generate a triangulation between existing 3D points or isolines.
The resulting objects can be used to generate section graphics through the AutoSEZ plugin.


PROCEDURE:

  • Run the TRIANGULATE command
  • Select the objects of interest: you can choose points or isolines.
    • If you select points, pick them using a crossing window.

    • If you select isolines, you can either select them individually or define the Step factor (1–100% of curve length) to generate intermediate points along the isolines. The default value is 5.

  • Choose your preferred parameters for the triangular geometries.

DIALOG OPTIONS:

Result entities: it's possible to choose between Mesh, 3D Face and 3D Polylines, and you can also select the color of the resulting entity.
Destination layer: you can choose whether the triangular objects are placed on the Current Layer, an Existing Layer, or a New Layer.
