Build Manually

The Build Manually options in the New Geometry section of the Construction tab offer a simple way to key in new geometry.

Select a geometry type from the drop down list and a new geometry will be constructed using the geometry default settings from the User Options and centered at the working frame origin. It will also open the new object's properties so that they can be directly edited as needed.

 

Multiple Geometries

The tool allows creation of geometries for e.g. cross section cuts including:

It operates much like the laser tracker geometry triggers measurement profile for these applications.

 

Clocked Circles about working frame z-axis

In addition to basic geometry layout this tool also adds a new construction option to build circles laid out in a circular pattern. This can be quite helpful for flange measurement applications.
