Feature

Support directly creating point, line, plane, circle, sphere, cone and cylinder features.

Note

  • After creating a feature, you can edit the reference value in the right Properties panel, and the corresponding deviation value as well as the label will be updated in real time.
  • After creating a feature, click in the right Properties panel to highlight the object in the left tree view and the 3D scene.

Basic Concepts

Concept
Description
Reference feature Auxiliary geometric features created using various feature creation methods, and are used to assist in the creation of measured features.
Feature extraction Extract measured points for fitting on the measured model based on reference features, and fit measured features based on the extracted points.
Measured feature Use feature extraction, fit creation method, etc. to calculate features on actual scan data on the measured model.
Feature pair A reference feature and a corresponding extracted measured feature.
The methods for generating feature pairs: Right-click on a feature group that contains a reference feature in the left tree view, and select Extract Measured Feature for extraction, or select Pair Measured Features for manual pairing.

Extraction​​

If the created feature is a reference feature, the corresponding measured feature can be extracted automatically or manually.

Note

If you define a feature as a reference feature, after importing at least one measurement model, you can extract the measured feature to generate feature pairs.

  • Automatic Extraction: Enable Auto Extraction of Measured Values via Settings in the upper right corner of the software interface or check Extract Measured Feature in the creation window. The software will automatically extract the corresponding measured feature with default parameters after creating any reference feature.
  • Manual Extraction: After creating a reference feature, right-click the feature group in the tree view on the left, select Extract Measured Feature and specify the measurement model to be extracted; you can specify Align Object in the extraction pop-up window.
