Region Grow Circle

CmdExtractCircle.svg

This command extracts a circle according to a seed point and visible objects.

Requirements

To extract a circle, launch the command and click a seed on objects.

  1. You can force the center, the normal or the radius:

    1. Enter the XYZ coordinates in the edit controls or click on the icon AddPoint.svg to click a point in the scene.

    2. Enter the XYZ values of the vector in the edit controls or click on the icon Normal1.svg to define a direction in the scene.

  2. Set the Extraction tolerance.

  3. Click a seed point.

Notes

  • The Extraction tolerance corresponds to the extraction of the plane which contains the geometry (Extraction performed in two steps: plane and contour extractions).

  • Once a seed point is clicked, the computation is launched. You can cancel the current computation by pressing ESC. 

  • Sometimes, when you compute a geometry, an incorrect extraction may occur with the point you click (ie noisy point). In that case, delete the latest point with DEL and click a new point

  • You can't lock all the properties at once: prefer the corresponding draw command.
