Script or [live] MCG that creates contours of a terrain

By Haider of Sweden · 2017-03-29

Description

I have been wondering if there could be any live-solution, script or MCG that creates contours of a terrain.

That means you pick the terrain mesh, set a distance value, eg 1m, and we get height curves from the lowest points every one meter to the uppermost level.

Hi! I never thanked you for the suggestion. I was quite busy and tried it only recently.

It works very good.

However, if there is anyone skilled in MCG; can you tell us if there is something that there that supports contour creation? It doesnt need to be live - a refresh button could also work.

from memory it should be poss..with MCG

and i don't think you have to be highly skilled...

(done it early on but never bothered to release it...can't remember why...maybe it was too easy)

If it's fast, I would recommend you to release the MCG

The tool that was previously recommended is good but a little slow.
Maybe an MCG could offer more benefits

» faster
» less clicks, ie an update could update the curves instead of erasing the old and regenerating
