Purpose
Refits selected orthogonal curves.
Syntax
|
REFIT ( BUTTOCK ) ( /ALL ) ... |
Description
This command analyzes each selected curve and checks whether the curve needs to be adjusted. The criteria for refit are that the curve must intersect the other orthogonal curves and give a consistent result. If an appropriate view is set then the adjusted curve will be displayed.
-
Sections are matched against Waterlines and buttocks at the appropriate X value.
-
Waterlines are matched against Sections and Buttocks at the appropriate Z value.
-
Buttocks are matched against Sections and Waterlines at the appropriate Y value.
It should be noted that an AUTOMATIC ADJUST of the B-Spline mathematics is performed, see the ADJUST command, and the curve is NOT actually refit through the data points.
For the command to perform with reasonably good results the user must ensure that the MATCHING curves are CONSISTENT and FAIR. If this is not the case then UNPREDICTABLE results may occur. Therefore, the command must be used with CARE.
Command Qualifiers
|
/CONFIRM |
The user will be prompted whether the adjusted curve should be stored. |
|
/DATE |
Only match against curves that have been modified since the selected curve. |
|
/NEW |
If a curve needs adjusting then instead of performing an automatic adjust the system will do a GET and PREFIT that means, re-fit the curve through data points. |
|
/TOL=$N |
A user defined tolerance within which the matching curves must lie. Defaults to 0.001 working units. |
