Build – Subsample – Adaptively – Element
Reducing the Number of Points of the Selected Element Adaptively
This command is used to reduce the data of the points of the selected element so that surface points density in
simple-shaped areas is lower than that in complicated-shaped areas.

The elements selected before execution of this command will be divided to triangular polygons.
Parameters for [Build-Subsample-Adaptively-Element] Dialog Box
Number of points
Reduces the current number of points to the specified number. When the [Apply] button is clicked,
the current number of vertices will be displayed. (The default for the “Number of points” param-
eter is set so that the number of selected points will be reduced by 50%.)

eter is set so that the number of selected points will be reduced by 50%.)
Range of errors
The program reduces data in accordance with the value that you enter. The value serves as a gen-
eral yardstick for the amount of reduction-induced change in model tolerance.
