VLA-INTERSECTWITH, 3dsolids and blocks
« on: November 12, 2011, 10:54:04 AM »
Hello,
 i always thought that vla-intesectwith does all acad stuff. I now have a 3dsolid that i want to check with a 3dsolid wraped in a block . But i get a strange error msg

error: Automation Error. Not implemented yet


Any thoughts anyone, please?

Thanks Bernd

As far as I now vla-intesectwith works only with mathematical curve objects like : ellipses, circles, lines, arcs, 2dpolylines, splines, (3dpolylines - if another curve intersects with it). Helix curve is always 3d even if you enter its height to 0.0... If you want to find its intersection with 2d curve, you must explode it and modify spline control points to be on elevation 0.0...

See this for more info

BTW. vla-intersectwith can find intersections between xlines and rays (those are also mathematical curve objects)
