Select the secondary part.

The connection is created automatically when the secondary part is selected.

Use the Picture tab to control the gap dimensions and whether the dimensions are the same on both sides of the gap.

Define whether the gap dimensions are the same on both sides of the gap.


Option	Description
	Gap dimensions are the same on both sides.
	Gap dimensions are different on each side.


	Description
1	Gap between the column and the secondary part in the vertical direction.
2	Gap between the column and the secondary part in the horizontal direction.
3	Gap between the column and the secondary part in the horizontal direction. To define this dimension, select the option that the gap is different on each side.
4	Gap between the column and the secondary part in the vertical direction. To define this dimension, select the option that the gap is different on each side.


Option	Description
	A cut is always created through the whole main part.
	Define the depth of the cut from the edge of the secondary part.

Use the Parameters tab to control the cut properties and type of the cut.
