[GiDlist] restore line (break up)

Post by Mark Smith »

Enrique
Thank you, I look forward to the new feature.
Mean time there is a work around in that I can use utilities:list:lines &
then cut & paste the data into a text editor, remove the unwanted data and
add a header of geometry create point and put escape at the end.
Unfortunately this doesn't always want to work, see attached batch file,
when loaded into GiD it tells me I have an error and stops after reading
line 10 ?
Is there an undocumented format for the batch file?

regards
mark

It doesn't exists any funcion to automatically break a curve on this
"special" points (hight curvature changes, etc).
And you don't know the exact curve paremeter to manually divide it.

Maybe for next versions we will remove this "join tangent lines" filter from
the "Collapse" function, and put as a separated funcion.
We will also think about to implement some function to detect and/or divide
curves/surfaces from this special points.

Hi Gid team

The attached model is a square with rounded corners produced from a square
&
then performing an arc tangents operation at each corner. I have then
collapsed the lines to give me just 1 line instead of 4 lines and 4 arcs.
Question: is it possible (undo is not an option in my real case) to break
this line back into it's constituent parts again (points lines & arcs)?
if I do an edit nurbs line it shows me all the original points etc how can
I
get them back again?

best regards

[GiDlist] restore line (break up)

Post by escolano »

Before read this batch, set the general preference (utilities preferences)
create new point: to always
(else, GiD expects user confirmation before create new points very near of other points)

In any case, in general, you cannot reconstruct a line only from his control points.

Regards

Enrique
