create workpoint on intersectionlines sketches in part

Anonymous

Hi all ,

 

i have a skeleton part that contains  :

 

* sketch 1  : vertikal patterned lines.

* Sketch 2 :  horizontal lines or any random possible form such  as circles / inclined lines / rectangural forms

 

Is it possible to create for each intersection between sketch 1 and sketch 2 a workpoint ?

 

So  as a result i become a raster of workpoints , from where i can catch  the vertikal distance between 2 points on each vertikal line (sketch 1)

 

Thanks for the advise/help in advance

You can easily place workpoints between the intersection of any features or entities supported by the "Point" command.  It is unfortunate that intersecting sketch lines are the only things that fit the command parameters.  Circles to lines will not work directly from the "Point" command.  You can get them by other means if you really need the point.  Take a look at the screencast and see if it helps you out.

Hello,

 

Just pre-select those two sketches in browser nodes and click workpoint command, the workpoint will be created automatically.

 

Hope it helps!

Hi ,

 

Actually it's not exact what i need .

I forgot to mention that all point need to be place automated (ilogic)

 

Line to line intersection should already cover 80 % ove my cases.

 

Any idea ?

Hi ,

 

Actually it's not exact what i need .

I forgot to mention that all points need to be placed by a automated subroutine (ilogic)

 

--> By looping over each vertical line in sketch 1 and place a workpoint when its intersect with other curves (sketch 2). 

 

Line to line intersection should already cover 80 % of my cases.

 

-> based on those automated created workpoints , i would like to place vertical positioned parts on those points according a dimension calculated between 2 points on same vertical line . (also automated inserted part )

 

 

Any idea how to solve this ?
