PointDeviation - Points are only extracted at knots/control points of lines, polylines and degree 1 curves. This appears to be current intended result. Lines, polylines and degree 1 curves should be divided to obtain the requested number of points, the same as if Divide was used to obtain the test…

@pascal @John_Brock Any possibility of PointDeviation being updated so that the extraction of points for lines/polylines/degree 1 curves works the same as the extraction of points from higher degree curves?

Hi David - would you ignore polyline vertices altogether? -Pascal

For me ignoring polyline vertices would be okay. They are currently ignored by Divide, and in polycurves the junctions of individual curves ignored. The reason for adding extracting points from lines, polylines, curves and polycurves in PointDeviation is to check how closely those items match other…

Hi David - they (vertices) are ignored by Divide but I am not sure that it the most relevant comparison here - it seems like a vertex will be likely to be more extreme, closer/farther than a nearby division point, is what I am thinking, so not including these seems potentially unnecessarily misleadi…

Hello, Why can only vertics or division points be included? Why not both? Sometimes vertex points will be the most extreme than points between vertices, but other times they may be the closest points. My request was prompted by a lobster boat hull model I’m working on which has a straight keel. I …

[image] davidcockey: Why not both? Hi David - right, that is where I was headed with my question above… if we divide the polyline, should we also include the vertices… Sounds like yes… -Pascal
