To create a \b Point in the Main Menu select New Entity - >

\n There are five algorithms to create a \b Point in the 3D space.
\n Each time the \b Result of the operation will be a GEOM_Object
(vertex).
\n Firstly, we can define a point by setting its X, Y and Z \b Coordinates.
\n TUI Command: geompy.MakeVertex(X, Y, Z)
\n \b Arguments: Name (Vertex_n by default) + X, Y and Z coordinates of
the point.

\n Secondly, we can define a point by a \b Reference to another point
and the shift of the coordinates of the new point regarding the
coordinates of the old one.
\n TUI Command: geompy.MakeVertexWithRef(Reference, X,Y,Z).
\n Arguments: Name + 1 reference point + 3 coordinates defining
the position of this point regarding the reference one.

\n Thirdly, we can define a point by an \b Edge and a \b Parameter
indicating its position on the Edge, ranging from 0.0 to 1.0. For example, 0.5 means that the
point is located in the middle of the edge.
\n TUI Command: geompy.MakeVertexOnCurve(Edge,Parameter).
\n Arguments: Name + 1 edge + 1 Parameter defining the
position of the point on the given edge.

Alternatively, it is possible to define a point by an \b Edge and a \b Length.
The \b Length defines the position of the point on the given edge. It
can exceed the length of the edge or be negative. In this case the edge
is extrapolated along its curve (except for bezier and b-spline
curves).
The Start Point defines the direction for the length
calculation (if not defined, the first vertex of
Edge is used, else the vertex of Edge closest to StartPoint is used).
\n TUI Command: geompy.MakeVertexOnCurveByLength(Edge,Length,StartPoint=None).
\n Arguments: Name + 1 edge + 1 Length + 1 Point.

It is also possible to define 3D coordinates of the point
projected on the given edge to produce the resulting point.
\n TUI Command: geompy.MakeVertexOnCurveByCoord(Edge,X,Y,Z).
\n Arguments: Name + 1 edge + 3 coordinate values of the
projected point.

\n Fourthly, we can define a point(s) by intersection of two \b Lines or \b Wires (or a Wire and a Line).
If they intersect only once, a point will be created. If there are several intersections, a compound of
points will be created. The type of the selected object (Line or Wire) can be changed in the popup menu,
after clicking the corresponding selection button. (see the picture below)
\n TUI Command: geompy.MakePointOnLinesIntersection(myLine1,myWire1).
\n Arguments: Name + 2 1D objects

\n Finally, we can define a point by a \b Face and
Two Parameters: U and \b V
indicating its position on the Face, ranging from 0.0 to 1.0. For example, (0.5; 0.5) means that the
point is located in the middle of the face.
\n TUI Command: geompy.MakeVertexOnSurface(myFace,myUParameter,myVParameter).
\n Arguments: Name + 1 face + 2 Parameters defining the
position of the point on the given face.

Alternatively, it is possible to define 3D coordinates of the point projected on the given face.
\n TUI Command: geompy.MakeVertexOnSurface(myFace,X,Y,Z).
\n Arguments: Name + 1 face + 3 coordinate values
to project point on the given face.
