Shortest Path Line

 

Overview

IMG_C_ICON_DOT.gifCreate a shortest distance line between two shapes or an intersection curve between two intersecting shapes.

 

Methodology

 

Shortest path line

Create the shortest possible line between two shapes by selecting them in order.

Surface Intersection Curve

Selecting two shapes create an edge type line at the intersection. If the intersection is a single edge, a single edge is created but if there are more intersections, a compound shape consisting of edges is created.

 

Geometry set

Register the generated edges on the Geometry set. The user can specify the name of the Geometry set.
