In PCurve tab

Use this tab to insert ppoints without changing the shape of the pcurve.

There are two ways to insert ppoints using this page of the dialog:

• By Value — This inserts a ppoint at a specific parameter value. Enter the parametric value of where you want the new ppoint to lie in the pcurve.

  If you enter 3.5, a new ppoint with label 4 is added to the pcurve and other ppoints are renumbered.

  

• Nearest Point — This inserts a ppoint on the pcurve nearest a specified point.

  Enter the X Y Z coordinates, or click the Position button to open the Position dialog, where you can use position entry tools.

  For example:

  1. Enter the X, Y, Z coordinates. In the following example, the coordinates match the indicated point .

     

  2. The position is found on the pcurve nearest to these coordinates .

     

  3. A ppoint is inserted at that position. The new ppoint has label 3 and other ppoints are renumbered .

     

  Note: You can also enter a position by clicking on the screen.
