Hi Michael,

>>If you need to create an object with fitting accuracy of smaller
>>than 1/100000 the size of the object

Well, it is an extreme case. I was talking about something like 1/4000.


>>It is all accurate to within an acceptable range of error

I agree. There is no argument about that. Except, how can MoI know what is the acceptable error (only designers know what is the aim - model for visualization, machining or cmm inspection). But you explained how accuracy is determined and it is sufficient for me for now.


>>Actually, I'm sorry - I forgot that there is a tolerance involved in Lofting with the "Exact" method

Yes. I like (exact) lofting in MoI. It seems to eliminate not only number of control points but also a "wavy isocurves".

ps: By the way, will be V1 and V2 compatible considering solid objects with that new relative tolerance included in joining process (Join command)?
