Hi. Does anyone know a way to perform a Surfacic Curvature analysis using a macro?

Thanks in advance. / Albin
 
Can you get the info you need with reflect line?

if you want a value at one point, you can get a curve at the point and rotate it (around the line normal to the surface at this point) until you find the max/min radius at the point, then get the second curve (normal to the first one) and do the math to get the value you want. You can iterate this process to any number of points...

Thank your for your answer. I would like a craphical representation of the radius over my part by using the "surfacic curvature analysis" command!
