Hello Opendx-users, (Question): Is it possible to use opendx to pick two points on a non-linear (iso)-surface and measure the complete distance? In addition, would it be possible to depict the measured distance with a different colored iso-surface (ie an iso-line)?
An example of a non-linear iso-surface could be waves from an ocean or hills on land. I want to be able to pick two points on the surface and measure the complete distance between the two points that is up the wakes and down the troughs of the wave(s). Then display the result. (Solution needs help): I know it is possible to use the pick module to pick landmarks on an iso-surface. Now the next step would probably to find the shortest path from the two selected points on the iso-surface. (I do not recall seeing that algorithm in opendx as a module or macro but it may exist somewhere else ) Once the path is determined those (points or vertices) could be measured to get the length and form the line??? I do not know enough about the internals of opendx. I was hopping to see if this has been done before or perhaps a different approach... -jj __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
