Construct Points Shifted in Working Frame    

Copies points and translates them by the specified Cartesian offset (expressed in the working frame).

 

Input Arguments

 

0

Point Name Ref List

Original Points

A list of points to copy.

1

Collection Object Name

Group for New Points

A point group for the newly created points.

2

Vector

Shift Vector

The vector (in the working frame) describing the translation for the points.

 

Return Arguments

None.

 

Returned Status

 

SUCCESS

The point was created successfully.

PARTIAL SUCCESS

At least one source point (but not all) was found.

FAILURE

None of the source points was found.

 

Remarks

The newly shifted points are essentially copies of the original points. As such, any points which are measured targets are converted to constructed points, and their offsets are reset to zero.

If the specified points already exist, they will automatically be sequenced to prevent duplicate point names.
