To Point

Implicit modelling is done in two stages: a model is created and then a triangulation is created from the model. When you run an implicit modelling function and save the model, it can be used as an input to the functions on the Output Implicit Model menu on the Implicit tab, in the Tools group. These functions allow you to generate output wireframes, points, block models or volumes for the same model, without having to recompute the model each time.

On the Implicit tab, in the Tools group: Select Output Implicit Model | To Point to generate points from an input model.
