Codes for iterative alignment

[zoran]

Is there any way that I can see the codes for iterative alignemnt ( all the calculation that software does for that process)? Thanks,

Zoran

AUTO       =ALIGNMENT/START,RECALL:MAN, LIST= YES
            ALIGNMENT/ITERATE
              PNT TARGET RAD = 0.1, START LABEL = , FIXTURE TOL = 0.1, ERROR LABEL = 
              MEAS ALL FEAT = ALWAYS ,MAX ITERATIONS = 5 ,LEVEL AXIS=XAXIS ,ROTATE AXIS=ZAXIS ,ORIGIN AXIS=YAXIS
            LEVEL = A1,A2,A3,,
            ROTATE = B1,B2,,
            ORIGIN = C1,,
            ALIGNMENT/END

No, I don't think he wants to see the alignment, I think he wants to see the work behind the alignment and I don't think you can.

Dear Hexagon,

Please post your source code.

Thank you.

The best you'll get is an explanation in the help file of what it is. I do not believe they are going to reveal the math to you.

Somebody told me that by mistake typed in a short key and all the calculations showed up, but now doesn't know how and what short key was used. So I thought maybe somebody else outhere would know how to reveal the math.

It sounds like you may be looking for the formula (algorithm) that mates the points to there definitions. Those are usually kept locked up pretty tight. I would be surprised to find out that you could access those.
