Description
The Geo Tool Transform Tool allows the user to change the calibration of the geometry within a tool.
Using the Geo Tool Transform Tool
To use this tool drag and drop the tool from its location into the sequence.
Right-click the tool and select "edit". This will open the tools inputs page.
Inputs
Drag
and drop a tool that contains geometric data (any type of geometry)
into the "Geometry" box that is located within the tool's
inputs page.
Use the drop down menu located on the right side of the inputs page to select the geometry that are to be changed.
Next the user must place in the "Calibration" box the new calibrations for the geometry. The user will do this by selecting the Calibration Collection
tool from the ROTMain (Follow the directions for the Calibration
Collection tool to submit the calibrations. The user may use any of the
calibration tools but the information needs to be stored into and come
from the Calibration Collection tool).
Next enter into the tool's parameters page.
Parameters
The user may select different options within the parameters page.
Replicate:
if this box is checked to tool will make a copy of the geometry and
make the changes to the copy. If the box is left unchecked it will make
these changes to the original geometry.
Revert:
if this box is checked the tool will make the changes in a reverse
order, if left unchecked the changes will be made in a forward manner.
For example if the user has a linear piece of geometry and wants to
make a 10 mm change to that geometry the user can make the decision to
the direction of that change. If the starting point is at 10mm and we
add 10 mm without checking the revert box the new point will be at
20mm, if the revert box was checked then the new point would be at 0mm.
Transformed Item: This is
the portion of the tool that will display if the changes were made. If
the changes were made and the tool has been running this box will
contain "?????".
Once the parameters and Inputs are set within the tool select "Apply" and run the tool.
