Intersections of Straight Lines
With the function Calculate
> Intersections >
Straight Lines the intersection point of two straight lines can be
calculated and stored as plane coordinates. Define the start and end points of the two straight lines by entering the point
numbers. Alternatively, click on the points in the graphic screen of GART-2000®
CE. The
straight lines are displayed in the graphical screen.
To parallel-shift the straight lines enter the value in the field Distance. A positive
distance moves the straight lines to the right, a negative distance results in a
shift to the left. The orientation of the straight line is defined from start to
end point.
With the <Option> button other
definitions for the straight lines are possible.
By pressing the <OK> button the
calculation of the intersection point is started.
As the result of the
intersection of straight lines the plane coordinates of the intersection point,
the angle between the straight lines as well as the distance between the
intersection point and the 4 chosen points are shown.
If you want to store the coordinates click the <Save>
button. The coordinate input dialog is opened automatically.
