Is there a way of outputing points from a UG part into a text file of there x,y,z values?
At the moment we use a grip file called 'points2file' to output the x,y,z values of points on aerofoil sections of turbine blades.
Although this works well it requires that you create the points on a curve and then select them one by one and in the correct order (you can't just drag a box around them) to output the x,y,z figures.

Does anybody know of a grip file which would output x,y,z points without having to select each one individually, or maybe a site where one could be found?
