SMS:Mesh to Scatterpoint

The Mesh → Scatterpoint command in the Mesh Data menu is used to create scatter point data from existing mesh nodes. When this command is performed, a prompt appears to request a name for the new scatter point set.

When the scatter point set is created, it contains one scatter point for each mesh node, including midside nodes and center nodes. Any mesh datasets that have been read into SMS are copied into the new scatter point set. The scatter point data can then be used for interpolation.
