Detection


The detection feature has the aim to detect primitives on the object based on the edge and it has a "smart" mode and different manual modes for different primitive shapes to be found.



  • Smart

The “smart” mode detects all the primitives and suggest which primitive is possible to create (color scale to the right).

In order to create the primitives click on the them:



Moreover, it is possible to edit the "smart" mode in order to correct errors in the detection and impose the correct shape.

Select the type you want to use and click on the the part to correct the element. The manual commands allow to select arbitrarily the primitives choosing between circle, arc, line or point, as shown in the following examples.


 The detection feature does the analysis, it is possible to verify the matching clicking on the Primitive Analyse.


  • Circle



click inside the primitive to be recognized

click outside the primitive and confirm to obtain it



To discern a primitive with the manual mode, it is necessary to guide the program by clicking inside and outside the supposed circle


  • Arc and Line


click on both sides of the line to set one beginning

click on one side to set the lenght

click on the other side to set the end of the primitive

confirm to obtain the line



click on both sides of the line to set one beginning

click on both sides to set the end of the primitive

confirm to obtain the arc



To detect Arc and Line the points to be clicked are four in order to cut the edges of the shape: the first and the last pair of points create an intersection that define respectively the beginning and the end of the selected primitive.


There is the possibility to draw an arbitrary number of selections, with the aim to avoid parts and connect others.


create a arc or line selection

create another arc or line selection

confirm to obtain a primitive that take into account all the primitive selection drawn before



  • Point




1)




Select a rectangle

Confirm to find the higher, lower, leftmost or rightmost point of the primitive inside the border of the rectangle



2)




Select a line

Set one point in order to create the orthogonal to the line passing through the point and find the intersection(s) with the primitive (closest, furthest or any)



3)



Set one point

Set another point

Confirm to find the intersection of the primitive with the line connecting the points (first found or all)
