Dear all,

I know the surface>point to define the points, but mouse selection is not accurate and the coordinates is difficult to calculate.Print out the data of the surfaces and select the data?

If I want to define the exact points on the surfaces of a complex model, could you show your ideas? please!!

Thanks in advance

Justin

perhaps by using Isosurface cuts on the surface you want, with 2 grid constrains (2 of the 3 coordinates you want): the third one is given by the constrain fot the point to belong to that surface...
