[Ch...] Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Hi Joseph, You can go to measurement plan editor features, go to geometry, export points and turn them on. This should generate text files for each feature and you can bring those text files into your Cad software. These will be located in the measurement plan folder. Based on your workflow you can automate the import of those points by a execution of a .bat file at the end of Calypso run if required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Lo...] Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I usually just give our cad guys the X,Y, Z of the points. I'm not sure how they import the points into CAD. Some of our guys have had luck and other not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Me...] Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 Most CAD software imports space/comma delimited text files. But it's just a collection of points. You still need to create features in the CAD software from the points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
