Duplicate Line selection and deletion macro
Duplicate Line selection and deletion macro
(OP)
I am bringing in a 2D profile from an IGS file, the profile has 3700 elements (lines and curves) then it has a totally new set of lines and curves that form the same profile on top of it. Essentially, its a single geoset with duplicate lines on lines. Is there a tool in Catia (or custom macro) to isolate only one group of elements that form the profile without going thru each line and deleting one of them?
I think the operation I'm looking for is similar to "OVERKILL" in AutoCAD...
thanks

RE: Duplicate Line selection and deletion macro
make a big join (no check connexity - no check manifold)
create a plane offset at 1mm
project the join on the offset plane
isolate the projection 1 (copy paste as result)
delete all but the isolated projection 1
project the isolated projection 1 back on the original plane
isolate the projection 2
delete isolated projection 1
disassemble isolated projection 2
delete isolated projection 2
