Point based process geometry

Command

With the Point command, this type of process geometry can be created and edited.

Create

After the command has been started, simply select the existing point(s) in the 3D View or a vertex (vertices) on the workpiece. Without any further interaction the process geometry (PG) is generated instantly.

The point based process geometry is displayed and can be recognized by a dotted frame, that has the same orientation as the origin of the workpiece. The blue axis represents the normal direction, the red axis the tangent direction.

PickResult

When hovering over the process geometry, its name is being displayed.

Edit

The existing process geometry object always can be modified, but only if the corresponding command has been started.

When hovering over the PG object the Edit Pie menu can be called

A modified point PG displays not only its axes, but also its original orientation, like in the example below.
