Extracting coordinates from a curve
-
Is there a way to extract the x,y or x,y,z points off a line, curve, or bezier curve without manually trying to "digitize" points along the line?

For one coordinate
Click on the curve line with the Icon Text and move it

Thank you Pilou and TIG,
What you both showed will do what I need. I did not know if there was a Ruby or function that will accomplish this. One other question if you don't mind. In the sample that TIG showed, some of the coordinates are preceded by a ~ sign. What does this mean? -
~ = Something like an approximation

I have my
Model Info > Unitsset to return a whole ofmm, so if the dimension is not a whole number SUp rounds it to the nearest whole number, but it adds a~to warn you that the figure is 'approximate'***...
1.0mm ==>1
1.2mm ==>~1
1.9mm ==>~2
1234.0mm ==>1234
1234.5mm ==>~1235
***I find that I don't need to report dimensions etc to anything smaller than a 'mm'... You can if you like...
