[Is...] Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Is it possible to joint de CAD faces as only one in order to generate a single Point set? Normally I modify the point set lists manually in order to have only one scanning strategy; the problem is when I have many adjacent CAD faces with thousands of Points: Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/17308-point-set-in-freeform-or-points-cloud/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ri...] Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 You can right click on the Point Set, and convert it to Single Points. If you do this for both, and then select all of the individual points again, you can right click and convert it to a Point Set. Just be wary, as if there are specific transitions or whatnot it could crash.

Currently I'm ordering the points one by one.

[No...] Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Not knowing the exact English names of the menu items, I translate freely: Try the function "Join faces with same geometry" from the CAD/Modify menu.

Hi Norbert Unfortunately this function only works for very simple geometries and in my case im evaluating curves.

[Ri...] Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Can you measure Curves around the perimeter, and do a recall feature points? Link to comment https://qualityforum.zeiss.com/topic/17308-point-set-in-freeform-or-points-cloud/#findComment-96984 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well actually the picture I put is only as example (not sure if I can post geometries of our parts), but I would like to scan around 30 curve faces in only one segment.. this is not a problem if I do it once; I can order the points manually but it looks like this could be a frequent task with different parts..

Actually I was thinking to generate many curves in all the evaluation area but I still don't check if there is an improvement compared with the manual sorting .
