Purpose
Calculates the intersection graphs for selected surface objects or the intersection point for the selected curves.
Syntax
INTERSECT < /SURFACE ! < /CLINE > > < $W > < $W ! /ALL >
< /LAYER $N >
Description
Calculates the intersection of a selected surface with one or all other surfaces and stores the resulting intersection graphs as 2D or 3D curves. The surfaces can be selected via the cursor or by name. The resulting 2D or 3D curves are stored on the current layer unless a specific layer number is specified.
When intersecting curves (clines), which can be selected via the cursor (or specified), a vertex is inserted in each of the curve’s crossing edges, at their intersection point.
Command Qualifiers
|
/SURFACE |
Specifies that surfaces are to be intersected. |
|
/CLINE |
Specifies that curves are to be intersected. |
|
$W |
Optional qualifier specifying the name of a surface/curve to intersect. |
|
/ALL |
Optional qualifier specifying that the first named surface/curve is to be intersected with all other surfaces/curves. |
|
/LAYER $N |
Optional qualifier specifying a layer number on which the 3D curve is to be stored. |
