Command Overview

Take two intersecting wireframe objects and create strings along the intersections.

The generated string data inherits the properties of the first object. As such, the choice of Wireframe 1 and Wireframe 2 can be important with this command.

• Attributes for each string edge match the corresponding triangle in the first wireframe.

• If the first wireframe doesn't have any non-system attributes, no attributes are inherited.

You can either create the intersection string for full objects or you can preselect wireframe triangles beforehand and generate an intersection of the selected data only.

You can optionally set a Key field for each input wireframe. Use <None> to disable key-based grouping for an input.

When a key field is set, each key value is treated as a separate group during intersection calculation. Attribute inheritance from Wireframe 1 still applies.

Output Strings can be generated as a Single Object or as Multiple New Objects. Multiple output objects are created from key-field grouping, while single-object output stores all resultant strings in one object.
