Line (LINE)

In addition to the three‑dimensional primitive elements, 3D Geomsets may contain Line (LINE). A LINE has one particular attribute:

• PTS - a set of numbers (up to six) representing P-point numbers of the P-points in the corresponding Pointset, which determine the course of the line.

The values held in PTS are set by the SETPoints command, followed by point specifications in which each p‑point identifier is preceded by ‘P’ or ‘T’, for example, P1 P2 T3 P4. When the P-point is preceded by P it is treated in the same way as a point element (POINT) in the Design Data; when preceded by a T it is treated in the same way as a tangent point element (TANP) in the Design Data. (See the Model Reference Manual for further details).
