selecting a specific point(s)

[mirHadi]

hello

 

This is a very generic question for me when exploring the Geometry Spreadsheet.

I want to choose and highlight a specific point(s) in the view port by selecting them in in Geometry Spreadsheet. for instance the point number 0 or 128 . . 

 

I don't find a way to easily see that highlighted point in the view port. is there a way or I miss something here?

 

thank you in advance

hello

 

sometimes there are lots of points in the view port so It makes it difficult to see what is going on.

 

for some tracing situation I want to know where is the point number XX in the view port but I can't find it among others. 

Is there any way to pick a point a specific point ( in G Spread Sheet or arbitrary point number ) and focus on that in the view port?

 

thank you .. please help if possible.

You could use a group node and set the pattern to say point 4 then select the node in the network view, then mouse of the viewport and space & g keys.

 

To simplify the viewport point displays you could turn off 'Follow selection mask' in Display Option/Guides tab, and in the Markers tab, click on the eye icon next to Numbers and select the option 'Only Selected Components'.

 

To make the point very easy to see, set the Point marker size to a bigger number too, in Guides take, 'Point marker size'

thank you marty!

helped a lot.

 

I created a group and "Display group and attributes" ON ,and selecting group will select the points and done!.

but I thought maybe there is a simple selection/viewing relationship between geometry spreadsheet and view port other than creating a group.

good to know that there is actually none.
