POINTS acquisition

Remember to use the points acquisition commands under the right mouse button menu in conjunction with the drafting tools.
These commands are the keystone of M3d's operation and are re-iterated below:-

1) Between - gets a point midway between two other selected points and returns it into the current command point stack.
2) Translated From - returns a point translated from a selected point. Pick a point then type in or pick a translation vector. The new point is the selected point plus the translation vector. This is returned to the command point stack.
3) Polar Translated From - returns a point polar translated from an existing point. Pick a point then type in a translation vector in polar coordinates. The new point is the selected point plus the polar translation i.e. 2,45,0 will give a new point a distance of 2 away from the existing point at 45 degrees.
4) Intersection - returns the point at the intersection of two curves.
5) Project - returns a point that is the projection of an existing point onto a curve or surface. This is important for creating lines normal to curves.
6) Projected to Workplane - return a point which is projection of a point onto the workplane.

These commands can also be chained together so you could get a point:-
Between 2 Intersection
or a point
Translated from the point Between 2 Intersection
and so on.

Note Ortho may have to be turned off to get the desired results from these command.
