hi..buddies
I am having problem to connect points in design modeler to form up airfoil profile. There are 200 points in total and i feel that connecting the points by 'line' manually is not proper way to create airfoil profile. Are there any better and smarter method to connect all points? I have attached my model for better perception. pls help suggest. |

Try putting a spline through the points.
I must admit that I do my airfoil work in Solidworks where you get much better control over the shape. |

use the 3d curve from points option. works like a charm

It does not, alas. My geometry contains a lot of points and DM struggles to draw a line that goes through each and every point. The result is an inaccurate line with lots of rough edges.
Someone knows how to solve that? |
