Alignment of entities before morphing

Hi,

I am trying to morph a mesh onto a surface using 'morph to geometry' command. Before morphing, it is important to align the mesh and geometry correctly. For this I used 'Tool>position' command. But I had to use this command several times to align the to entities correctly. Since I have to do a lot of morphing on different entities, I was wondering if there is any automatic/semi automatic way to align them appropriately before morphing? Or is there a script based method to input a 4x4 transformation matrix into Hypermesh for aligning two entities?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Harish

Hi Nguyen,

Sorry for not posting the pictures. As an example, I have to morph the mesh (in pink) onto the surface (in blue). So the first step here is aligning both of them. I wanted to know if there are better methods to align other than 'position command'? Or if there is a script based method where I can input a transformation matrix to align these two entities?
