Wireframe Section: Primary Area

The primary area of the Wireframe section provides commands for managing wireframe elements.

This page discusses:

Free Edges
Creates the free edges of a mesh as scans or curves.
See Creating Free Edges.
Planar Sections
See Flyout for Creating Planar Sections.
Curve Projection
Projects scans or curves onto a cloud of points or a mesh.
See Projecting Curves or Scans.
Curve from Scan
Creates curves from a scan or a set of scans.
See Creating Curves from Scans.
Sketch from Scan
Retrieves basic primitives from planar scans. The primitives are then created as sketches.
See Creating a Sketch from Scan.
3D Curve
Creates a 3D Curve using control points.
See Creating 3D Curves.
Fictive Edge
Creates a fictive edge from an existing curve or from picks.
See Creating a Fictive Edge.
Curves Network Preparation
Creates a set of curves on the selected mesh.
See Preparing Curves Networks.
Curves Network
Creates a network of constrained curves.
See Creating a Curves Network.
Point
Creates points.
See Creating Points.
Line
Creates lines.
See Creating Lines.
Plane
Creates planes.
See Creating Planes.
Circle
Creates circles or circular arcs.
See Creating Circles.
Translate
See Flyout for Performing Transformations on Clouds.
Contrast Map
Creates a Contrast Map.
See Analyzing the Characteristic Lines of the Mesh with a Contrast Map.
Mesh Shape Analysis
Identifies homogeneous curvature areas into a color map.

Curvature Map
Creates a Curvature Map.
See Creating a Curvature Map.
Porcupine Analysis
Creates a visual representation of the point, tangent, and curvature continuity of curves and surfaces.
See Analyzing Using Porcupine Curvature.
Deviation Analysis
Analyzes the deviation between reference objects and objects to measure.
See Performing a Deviation Analysis.

Flyout for Creating Planar Sections

Planar Sections
Creates planar sections by cutting a cloud of point or a mesh by planes.
