Point Cross-Section

Introduction

The Point cross-section may be found in the Type drop-down menu. This cross-section type functions as a collection point for all feature lines in a component and is the primary method of ensuring that a Fuselage or Stack is “watertight”. By default, Stacks and Fuselage components have Points placed at the beginning and end of the component to ensure that the geometries are closed. Note that a Point closure is fundamentally different than using a Cap on the end of the body.  See Stack Cap Treatment for an example of these differences.
