      Hi

      I'm trying to make a surface (tin) from points I imported from a dxf file.
      I can see all the points with their elevation, but I don't have a clue how to make a surface from it.
      Search google relentlessly and didn't find a thing.

      Is there some extension or workflow to help me with that?

      Every page I find starts with contours. I don't have contours but points. I didn't find anything to make contours from point.

      Can somebody help?

        There are several...
        You search too broadly !
        Try some searches in the SketchUcation PluginStore... e.g.
        http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=TIG_points_cloud_triangulation
        This does what you want.
        Select the guide-points, run the tool and a 3d mesh is generated from them...

            thx guy's

            So triangulation was the magic word πŸ˜„
            Both plugins worked. I personally think that toposhaper worked better. It had more options and I'm a big fan of Libfredo plugins.
