Modify the adaptivity of reinforcement, surface treatment, or edge chamfers in parts
Reinforcement, surface treatment and edge chamfers adapt to the parts they are linked to. For example, reinforcement, surface treatment and edge chamfers automatically adapt to changes in part geometry and size. You can modify the adaptivity settings either for the entire model or for each model object separately. If you modify the adaptivity of individual model objects, these modifications override the default settings that you may have defined for the entire model.
The options are:
- Off: adaptivity is not defined
- Relative: handles retain their relative distances to the nearest part faces in relation to the part's overall size
- Fixed: handles retain their absolute distances to the nearest part faces
Define default adaptivity settings
You can define default adaptivity settings that affect the entire model.
- On the File menu, click , and go to the General settings.
- Under Default adaptivity, select one of the options.
- Click OK to save the changes.
Modify the adaptivity of an individual model object
You can modify the adaptivity settings for each reinforcement or surface treatment separately. These modifications override the default settings that you may have defined for the entire model.
- In the model, select the reinforcement or surface treatment whose adaptivity settings you want to change.
- Right-click, select Adaptivity, and then select one of the options.
