Extremum Point

(OP)
I'm on Catia V5R19 and can't find the extremum point command. Was it moved to a different toolbar (used to be on point type flyout toolbar)or eliminated?

RE: Extremum Point

(OP)
DBezaire,

I thought so too, and looked there too. Please see attached screenshot!

Is it only included on a different license? I didn't think so because before we upgraded to R19 I know I had it.

If this is the case and it isn't in R19 what is a good way to accomplish the same end result?

Thoughts? Thanks for your help btw!

RE: Extremum Point

Your license would be the same from previous versions to R19. Did you load the GSD module. I think it would be called GSD -- Generative Shape Design 2 for the individual module or you could load the package HD2 which would have it there too.

Is it in tools options general license list?

I am not sure how you would get a consistent accurate result without the option. Perhaps you could create an extruded surface then use a reflect line to get the extreme curve. Intersect the curve with a plane through the original curve to get a point.

Regards,
Derek
