For all multi-point features, the default number of data points can be set. This
setting applying to the calling of a feature during the measurement process. For example,
launch the measure circle function and after answering the characteristics of the circle
(if required) Geomet will are prompt with the default number of hits required. That
default number is retrieved from the [System Options→Feature Characteristics] page.
It is recommended that on a multi point feature, the minimum number of hits should be
set 1 greater than the minimum allowed to solve for that feature. This allows for form fit
testing to ensure the data points form a sound feature. The table below lists the minimum
and recommended number of data points required in Geomet for a feature.
