Does anyone know a simple way to export points from UG that would have IJK definition attached? The IJK vector would be the normal of the surface on which the point lies. I thought the PMI might have this functionality but I couldn't seem to find the answer.

Thanks

In the old days we would use a drill operation (no cycle)with the tool axis set to norm ps. The xyz-ijk info can be output to a cls file or copied from the text window.
Clearance should be zero and avoidance will need to be turned off. It takes a seperate op for each surface.
