Type of Check (Parts only)
|
Manual Face Check
|
|
|
Automatic Symmetry Split |
Reduces a part to its smallest repeatable symmetrical body, which is especially useful when you run analyses using simulation software.
|
Analysis Parameters
|
Defined by |
Defines how to define the plane of symmetry.
Single plane
|
Specifies symmetry with respect to a selected plane.
|
Two parallel faces
|
Places the plane mid-plane between the two faces.
|
Two points
|
Places the plane perpendicular to the midpoint of the line joining the points.
|
|
|
Check |
Checks for symmetry about the plane and lists results under Symmetry Check results.
