How do you combine Point Sets in NX 8.5 yes/no? I'd like to do this to create a surface using Fit Surface. This works great with one point set but not with multiple sets. In addition is there way to modify an existing set to delete certain points? Any help would be appreciated.

OK, this is a bit a of 'workaround', but after you've created your multiple 'Point Set' features, go to...

Fomat -> Group -> New Group...

...and select ALL of the points so that they are all members of the same Group. Now when you go into the 'Fit Surface' function set the Selection Filter to 'Group' and select the group of points.
