Introduction

The Inspection Workbench is designed to give you tools for examination of shapes. It is still in development.

Intended Workflow

• Select two shapes to be compared, preferably that intersect each other.
• Then use the menu Inspection → Visual inspection.
• You will get a colored image showing the deviation between the two shapes.

Alternatively, use the macro HighlightDifference to compare two shapes.
