Title: contours problem
Post by: zekosta on July 13, 2012, 01:11:43 PM

I'm starting with cadtools, which seems excellent. Congratulations.
However, I still can not make turns. Even after getting a triangulated model (DTM).
I was therefore with some doubts.
The function Contours does not work for the model in the work area? Or just from the TSD file? What is the option to save a TSD file format?

Hi!

Use the Edit/View command to check the surface properties (Eleveations)
Plot your surface to AutoCAD (View surface, Plot Triangles)
Use AutoCAD's orbit command to view your surface from different positions to make sure its correct.
The Contours command uses the TSD-file (Saved surface)
