Perform Parametric Trimming
Use the Split: Parametric tool to restore suppressed fixed points.
Note: FE geometry is supported for this tool, except
for unsuppressing fixed points using Ctrl +
left-click.
-
From the Topology ribbon, click the tool.
- Optional:
From the guide bar, select Lines
to split a line into separate segments at a joint.
Joints exist where lines have been previously combined, or where geometric features dictate. Joints are part of the line definition history, so depending on how the line was created, it may or may not have joints.
- Select the input line.
- Click any of the displayed joints to split the line at that location.
The split will be made automatically. -
Press and hold Ctrl and left-click on a surface edge to
display a preview.
-
Accept the preview to restore the fixed points.
-
Click Split on the guide bar.
If a surface edge has fixed points that are suppressed, you can hold the Control key and select the surface edge. This will show a preview of the suppressed fixed points.
Tip: Use snap points to create fixed points at predefined points on your
model such as end, middle, and center points.
