New Point From Line Intersections

 

Menu

Model > New Feature > Point > From Line Intersections

This tool is used to create a new point in a reference model where two lines intersect. If you want to generate points from intersections on layers that are not in the reference model, you first need to import those lines into the model.

For more information on importing lines, see New Line from Superselection/Selection.
