Command Overview

Add one or more vertices to string data at the specified elevation

String shape is unaffected by this command. An additional vertex (or vertices where a string passes through the same elevation more than once) is added to the target string.

  • If you select data first, only that selection is updated. If no intersection can be found between the string and the target elevation in this scenario, the command ends.

  • If no data is selected, once an elevation is picked, successive strings can be picked. If no intersection can be found for any data, a message is shown.

Command Steps:

  1. Optionally, select string data in a 3D window. If data is preselected, only that data is modified, if possble.

  2. Run the command.

  3. Enter a Z Intersect Value. This is the elevation (the Z value) that will be used to create a new point on the target string data.

  4. Click OK.

    If data was preselected, a new data point is added to any occurrence of the string passing through the target elevation.

    If data was not preselected, pick a string to update.

  5. If data wasn't preselected beforehand, click Done to complete the command. If data was preselected, the command ends automatically.
