Purpose

To transpose all Orthogonal, Boundary and 3-D curves after the SAC curve has been modified.

Syntax

TRANSPOSE < /ALL  > < /ACCEPT  > < /FILE=$F >
< BOUNDARY  > < /NOACCEPT >
< BUTTOCK  >
< DIAGONAL  >
< KNUCKLE  >
< PLINE  >
< SECTION  >
< TANGENT  >
< WATERLINE >

Description

This command allows the user to transpose stored curves based on the modifications performed on the Sectional Area Curve. See GET SAC and VARIATION commands.

If SECTIONS are transposed their old and new positions are tabulated to the screen or to a file.

Note that when TRANSPOSING individual line-sets for example, Sections, the required transformation may take some of the curves outside the ships boundaries. It is recommended that the BOUNDARIES and 3D space curves are also transposed.

It should also be taken into account that TRANSPOSING orthogonal curves that were once at convenient whole number intervals may be shifted to less convenient values. Whereas this may be the desired result it may be necessary to re-fit the affected curves.

Command Qualifiers

/ACCEPT

The transposed curves are stored in the workfile. If subsequently a SAVE command is issued then the new curves will be copied to the active design.

/NOACCEPT

The transposed curves are displayed on the graphics screen but the curves are NOT stored. this can be used as a preliminary visual check. This is the DEFAULT action.

/FILE=$F

Send the tabulated output to the specified file. Only relevant for Sections.

Examples

TRANSPOSE /ALL /NOACCEPT
TRAN SECTION /ACC /FILE=trans.sec
TRAN BOUND /ACC
TRAN PLI
