6.1.4.4.3. Sweep Solid
It allows the user to create the swept solid geometric by using a surface along a 3D curve.
6.1.4.4.3.1. Modeling Options
The user can create a sweep solid geometry by the following procedure.
Surface, Curve, WithDialog
Surface: Selects a surface.
Curve: Selects a curve to sweep along.
WithDialog: Sets the direction about the sweep solid geometry. The sweep solid is created by clicking OK in the Sweep dialog box.
Sweep dialog box
Entity Name: Shows the name of the selected entity.
Curve: Shows the selected curve name to sweep along.
Color: Specifies the color of the solid to be created.
Tangent: If it is checked, the sweep function considers the tangent of the curve.
Fixed Axis: When using the Tangent option, if it is checked, the rotation around the specified axis is ignored.
Twist: If it is checked, the sweep function is twisted along the curve.
Direction: When using the Twist option, selecting this option twists in the set direction. If you use the Tangent option, this setting is ignored because the tangent option is prioritized.
Angle: When using Twist option, Set the angle of twist.
Preview: Previews the solid to be created on Working Window.
Update: Update the preview.
WithDialog
WithDialog: Sweep dialog box is shown. The solid is created by clicking OK in the Sweep dialog box.
Color: Specifies the color of the solid to be created.
Curve: Selects a curve to sweep the path.
Color: Specifies the color of the surface to be created.
Curve: Selects a curve to sweep the path.
Tangent: If it is checked, the sweep function considers the tangent of the curve.
Fixed Axis: When using the Tangent option, if it is checked, the rotation around the specified axis is ignored.
Twist: If it is checked, the sweep function is twisted along the curve.
Direction: When using the Twist option, selecting this option twists in the set direction. If you use the Tangent option, this setting is ignored because the tangent option is prioritized.
Angle: When using Twist option, Set the angle of twist.
Add/Remove: Selects several faces of any geometries the user wants to add or remove.
Add/Remove (Continuous): When using Add/Remove, if this option is checked, the connected faces within the degrees are selected together.
Tolerance (Degrees): The angle of between the connected two faces.
Preview: Previews the solid to be created on Working Window.
Update: Update the preview.
