Point

To describe a point, its position in space is indicated by its X, Y, and Z values.

Syntax:

<O T="Point" X="0" Y="0" Z="0" C="0" R="0" />

Example:

<br><O N="PointObject1" T="Project"><br> <!-- created by ParamML Examples on 31.01.2023 --><br> <O T="Surface"><br> <O T="Point" X="0" Y="0" Z="0" R="15" /><br> <O T="Point" X="50" Y="0" Z="0" /><br> <O T="Point" X="50" Y="50" Z="0" C="10" /><br> <O T="Point" X="0" Y="50" Z="0" /><br> </O><br></O><br>

When using "R" and "C" parameters, ensure that all of them arranges the points in a specific order. To create a curved path between two points, the "radius" parameter should be added, and for a beveled edge, the "Chamfer" parameter should be added. A line object has been added to reference the points with X=0 and Y=0.

Example:

<br><O N="PointObject2" T="Project" Category="3D Geometric Objects"><br> <!-- created by ParamML Examples on 31.01.2023 --><br> <O N="Triangle" T="Surface"><br> <O T="Point" X="0" Y="0" Z="0" /><br> <O T="Point" X="100" Y="0" Z="0" /><br> <O T="Point" X="0" Y="50" Z="100" /><br> </O><br></O><br>
