Hi,
I imported a cad file in hypermesh, and i want to modify the coordinates of some point of the geometry before meshing. Does any know how to view the coordinates and modify them in hypermesh ?
Tks

Hello,
I don't know any direct process, but you can try my method.
First go to Geom>>temp nodes and add nodes at the edges.
The go to Geom>>nodes>>XYZ. Here triple click any node and it should give you the exact co-ordinates of that node.
Note these down.
Then go to tools>>translate and translate the node to any position you want.
Also instead of translate you can create a new node where you want to translate the original one.
Then press F3 (replace panel) and replace the node.
Please note: You need the 3 XYZ values that is exact coordinates for proper positioning.
Thankyou

Hypermesh is NOT CAD software. So it's not possible.
But for simple geometry, you can base on original geometry to create new ones within Hypermesh. In this case, you can modify coordinates of points used for your new geometry.
Hypermesh can modify some cad features like holes, offsets
Try enter panel Geom>dimensioning
click 2 points
if dimension has '&' you can click it to change
press f1 for guiding
