Create 3DM functions

CREATE 3DM functions are the tools which allow you to construct 3DMs from strings. There are a variety of tools to use when constructing three dimensional models. The function you choose will depend on the geometry and complexity of the 3DM you wish to create.

Because the 3DM creation is performed within the GRAPHICS module, you have access to all other GRAPHICS commands, such as the View, Edit and Digitiser commands.

CREATE 3DM
TRIANGULATE
Automatic	Triangulate automatically between selected segments
CL String	Triangulate along a centre line string using a profile
Control Strings	Triangulate between segments using simple control strings to provide definition
Inside Seg	Triangulate automatically within a selected closed segment
Manual	Triangulate between segments by manually defining the limits of triangulation
One Triangle	Triangulate by selecting triangle corner points to define individual triangles
To a Point	Triangulate automatically from a selected segment to a selected point
Many Segs	Triangulate many segments chosen manually or by range, option to automatically create a closed 3DM
BIFURCATE
Union	Triangulate between one closed parent segment and two children using a union concept to control the line of bifurcation
One-to-Many	Triangulate between one closed parent segment and many children
Toggle Algorithm	Toggle the triangulate stitch algorithm
TRIANGULATE CONNECTED
All Connected Segments	Triangulate a set of segments that are connected to each other in a layer.
Between two segments	Triangulate between two closed segments that are connected in some way
Between multiple segments	Triangulate between a set of closed segments to another set of closed segments
End	Create a set of triangles to close a solid
