Line (the default)
|
•
|
•
|
•
|
If you choose Two points, enter the coordinates of the two points that define the line in the x and y columns for Point 1 and Point 2. If you want the line to be bounded by the points instead of extended beyond both points, select the Bounded by points check box (selected by default).
|
•
|
If you choose Point and directions, enter the x and y coordinates for a point under Point and the x and y components of a direction vector under Direction.
|
•
|
Plane (the default)
|
•
|
•
|
•
|
If you choose General (the default), see the settings for the available plane entry methods below.
|
•
|
If you choose Quick, you can choose one of xy-planes, yz-planes, zx-planes, yx-planes, zy-planes, or xz-planes from the Plane list. Depending on the selected plane’s orientation, you can enter the x-coordinate, y-coordinate, or z-coordinate as an offset for the plane (default: 0).

•
|
If you choose Three points, enter the coordinates of the three points that define the plane in the x, y, and z columns for Point 1, Point 2, and Point 3.
|
•
|
If you choose Point and normal, enter the x and y coordinates for a point under Point and the x and y components of a direction vector under Direction.

Intersection 2D and Intersection 3D data sets require the Particle Tracing Module or the Ray Optics Module.
