3D Features

Cylinder Feature

Creates a GR-Cylinder feature that dynamically builds a circle from the associated points, clouds or geometry.

Cylinder Features report the following criteria:

Cylinder Fit Settings include the following specific considerations:

Nominal Direction The nominal direction of the plane can be adjusted using the Reverse normal Vector option. The normal vector can also be set dynamically to match the nominal line using the Align with Nominal check box. This ensures the Angle Between value reported is always the smallest possible angle.

Cardinal Points 3 cardinal points can be built using the GR-Cylinder feature. These include both the origin point, the center point, and a point on the far end of the cylinder.
