Intersection Command Error

Hello,

 

I try to create two nodes through intersection of a line and a solid. When the solid lies in the planes XY, XZ or XY there is no problem but when the solid is rotated for example 30 degrees then only one node is created. I tried to explain with pictures. Do you know how to solve the problem?

 

Regards,

    Hi seyilmaz,

     

    I think one node must be covering/overlaying on other, when you are viewing from that angle. Please can you check again and make sure.

     

    Thank you

    Hello Premanand,

     

    Thank you for your answer, but when I tried from different view angles still 1 node created only. 

     

    On the other hand, I am working on a script so the viewing direction does not really matter for me.

     

    Thank you

    Thank you for your answer, but when I tried from different view angles still 1 node created only. 

    Can you go to Tool page > numbers > nodes All > and cross check, how many nodes are created. 

     

     

    Thank you

    I use the following commands to search for interactions for each surface but this gives and error when I call from a tcl file.

     

    *createmark surfs 1 'all'
    set surflist [hm_getmark surfs 1]
    foreach surfid $surflist {
    *createmark lines 1 1
    eval *createmark surfs 2 $surfid
    *nodecreateatintersection lines 1 surfaces 2 0

    }

    Use catch cmd

    catch {*nodecreateatintersection lines 1 surfaces 2 0}

    Hello tinh, 

     

    catch command made it work perfectly fine. Thank you very much!
