Snap Points

This option is used to slightly move points (that are close together) to the same point.

Points can be very close but not on the same point as a result of: 

  • Using the Extend to face tool (from the triangulation context menu) on fitted planes. Numerical rounding means the points are very close but not exactly on the same point.
  • Importing data from other software packages. This data can have points that are close, but are meant to be on the same point.
  1. On the Edit ribbon tab navigate to the Fix group and select Snap Points.


  2. Select the two points to be snapped.

  3. Enter the Tolerance. This defines the maximum distance between points for a snap to occur.
