Plot of a line between two points in 3D

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello,

I need to plot a line that describe the electric field between two points in 3D. I tried the way I used to try in 2 D but obviously it didn't work as I wanted. It didn't give me the plot I expected. I thought the reason was that when I click the point it does not penetrate the surface. So all the plots that I could do is on the surface. This is not what I want. I want a point from the core of the sphere to half of the cylinder.


Attached is my model, the expected plot and the wrong plot I am getting.


Do you know how I can penetrate the surface and generate a plot from a point in the core to any point from the cylinder?

I'd really appreciate any insight :)



Thank you.

hi,

I think you have to insert each point's coordinates directly in the Cut Line 3D.

core : x 0 y 0 z 0
side of cylinder : x 100 y 0 z 0
