Thin positions
Thin positions command removes positions from trajectories. The process removes positions as long as the trajectory line stays within given accuracy tolerance values.
To thin positions of trajectories:
1. (Optional) Select the trajectory file(s) you want to thin in the Trajectories window.
2. Select Thin positions command from the Tools pulldown menu.
This opens the Thin Trajectory Positions dialog:
3. Define settings and click OK.
This removes unnecessary trajectory positions and updates the trajectory files in the active trajectory directory. An information dialog shows the number of the trajectories effected by the process.

Thinning can also be applied to a trajectory in the import process. See Import files command for more information.
