Trimble Novapoint Help
On the basis of a triangle model (in the drawing), this function calculates and draws a line to the lowest point of a triangle side and continues the same process in the adjacent triangle, provided that there are lower heights in this. The function is very suitable for visualizing water run-offs and localizing critical low points for water accumulations.
Notes:
The function reads the elevation from the active model.
Triangle Model is to be generated and drawn to the AutoCAD drawing as 3Dface lines before initiating the function.
Run the function from:
Ribbon: Novapoint > Terrain Information > Create Water Drop Line from 3Dfaces
Command prompts for:
You have to choose one of the following: poly)Line, Single points or Gravity points <Single (is the default)>
Specify start point: Pick a start point/line inside a triangle. The program searches for the lowest elevation points and draws the lines joining the lowest elevation points. Choose the wanted Color of arrows or press enter for Bylayer.
