In fact that must be 6 points!
1 Center of circle
1 Intersection of lines
4 Intersection Lines CircleHere I have a lot of more
I have made Intersection before launch the plug Edge/edge (V 6)Edit I have found a Process
General Intersection
Hide Circle
Call the Plug Guides Tool - Edge/edge
Show Circle
Select Circle
Call ad Cpoint to Circle
I have my six points
Easy for not numerous circles but for many ?
Ok I can use Selection Toys Circles
-
Why do you hide and show the circle?
-
Yes see my edit text
In fact that must be Selection Toys "Arcs"
Hide
because the interections are made beforeProcess must be
Ad CP Circle(s)
General Intersection
Selection Toys "Arcs"
Hide
Add CPoint Edge /Edge
Show Hidden
When Edge / Edge Cpoints are they "Doubled" between 2 segments of a same lines or not? (like my lines above after the intersection)
(at the commune extremities)
Seems not! (I have verified with the outliner) You have just the problem of same arc centers of my previous old post

Dear Thomas,
Could the following be added to the suite of cpoint functions?
To place a construction point at the intersection of three orthogonal planes.
Thanks,
Bob -

Thanks,
BobShould be straightforward...
Get line of the intersection of two of the planes.
get the intersection of the third plane and the line.
Add a cpoint... -
@ Thomthom
Does it possible to have an option for DWG export?Problem is: Tocad don't import CP POINT !!!
So circle center oe arc circle center info are losted!So a possibility is to replace CPoints by 2 or 3 lines crossed.(3 axis)
(as "component" even Tocad lost the "component" it draw the lines!
And each circle is tranformed in disc by ToCad.So Replace CPoints by crossed lines will be fine for DWG export
Of course the replacement can be made by Selection Cpoint/Put Component at Cpoints.
(problem of mutiple same CPoints must be also resolved) -
Version 1.3.0

This looks like it would be very handy, but the forum is in French (only) and doesn't allow download without being a member of the forum.

Is it possible to add "CPoint at Insertion Point" for groups also?

Hi Thom-
Just downloaded your Guide Tools and TT Lib2; they seemed to be working fine, then I tried adding CPoints to the circles in the attached file. There's one circle that the tool refuses to work on (top, far right).
The odd thing is that your tool had no trouble adding a CP to the other end of the same hole (see bottom side), and I made the row of holes by drawing one circle on face, move+ x2, then pushed them through...
I tried both selecting the face and then using Guide Tools, and just selecting the circle and using Guide Tools, both with CPoint at Circle Center and CPoint at Arc Center.
Thought you'd want to see it.
SU8 (pro-expired)
MacOS 10.5.8Thanks, -carl-

Never mind?
After encountering this problem, the plugin wouldn't install guide points in other files either.
Quit SU, reopened, seems to work fine, even on the file I just posted...
It does seem that SU is less stable since installing Selection Toys and TT Lib1 this morning, but could be the moon -- this is not a report yet.
Sorry! -carl-

Very, useful tool... Thanks

You want to set the coordinates of the components
