Points on an image
Points on an image
(OP)
Ok folks,
Heres a tester for all you boffins out there.
I am trying to import a tif file of an aerofoil blade section, then scale and rotate it in 2d.
I would then like to visually create points on the aerofoil section.
Then i would like to output those points to a text/excel file ideally in the order which i created the points.
please could somebody reply to this as I'm quickly going bold.
Cheers
Alan

RE: Points on an image
Adding the image will create a plane that it lies upon in the model, you can set up your WCSYS to that, and just sketch the points over the image by eye.
Then you need to output the points. It is do-able several ways. One is to use a grip program. Some people use machining and output drill points. I'll leave you to search the forum using the search near the top of this page to help, because I know the topic has been covered here before. Again the solution you choose may depend on what licenses you have access to.
Best Regards

I've had a good go at your suggestion and with little bit
of manipulation i've managed to get there.
