Node Between Coordinates tool

The Node Between Coordinates tool allows you to create nodes when you are in the process of creating a new model or adding to an existing model. To access this tool, click Node Between Coordinates (Geometry tab > Create panel > Nodes > Node Between Coordinates).

The Node Between Coordinates command is used to create nodes on the (imaginary) straight line between two coordinates that you select. The two coordinates need not be on an existing curve, and if there is a curve, it need not be a straight line.

You can specify the number of nodes to create between the two coordinates. They will be evenly spaced.

Dialog elements

Coordinate 1
Specify the first of two coordinates between which you plan to create new nodes.

Either click directly on the model, or type the coordinate position in the dialog input box (e.g.: 5 10 15).

Coordinate 2
Specify the second of two coordinates between which you plan to create new nodes.

Either click directly on the model, or type the coordinate position in the dialog input box (e.g.: 5 10 15).

Number of nodes
Type the number of nodes you wish to create on the (imaginary) straight line between Coordinate 1 and Coordinate 2. The nodes will be evenly spaced.
