To improve the fasteners' visualization, the following settings are not taken into account when opening the model. To apply these settings, open the Display tab and click OK. | ||
This page deals with the following settings: |
||
3D Fasteners All Display Options |
||
|
||
Click the Unset All button to uncheck all the
options, except for the Shape Representation option. Similarly click the
Set All button to check all options. |
||
Shape |
||
|
||
Click the Show button to visualize the fastener's shape. |
||
By default, this option is checked. | ||
|
||
ID |
||
|
||
Click the Show button to visualize the fastener's ID. | ||
By default, this option is unchecked. | ||
|
||
Fastener Parameters |
||
|
||
Click the Show button to visualize the fastener's shape. |
||
By default, this option is unchecked. | ||
Associating a symbol to a specification |
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Once the symbol is associated with a specification, it can not longer be modified when editing the fastener's properties, except for the Unspecified type. | The example below shows that the graphic symbol is assigned to the Laser process type. The symbol color is assigned to the Welding process category. | |
For 1T: For 2T: For 3T: For 4T: |
||
The example above shows how to define a graphic symbol associated to a thickness count | ||
Associating a color to a specification |
||
|
||
|
||
In this case, the color associated with the process category will be transparent. | ||
Once the color is associated with a specification, it can not longer be modified when editing the fastener's properties, except for the Unspecified type. | ||
Associating marks to the specification |
||
Note that:
|
||
For instance assign the 1 mark code for the Robustness parameter and which value set by default is C: | ||
|
||
You will get this Mark: | ||
In this case all the Fasteners with the Robustness specification will get the mark symbol. | ||
In the Standard file, Marks are assigned by
default:
|
||
Fastener Axis Orientation |
||
|
||
Click the Show button to visualize the fastener's axis orientation. | ||
By default, this option is unchecked. | ||
|
||
By default, this option is checked. | ||
|
||
By default, this option is unchecked. | ||
Support Contact Zone Material Orientation |
||
|
||
Click the Show button to visualize the material orientation of the support contact zone. | ||
By default, this option is unchecked. | ||
|
||
Contact Zones |
||
|
||
Show Projected Points |
||
Select this option to visualize the fastener's projected points. | ||
By default, this option is unchecked. | ||
|
||
Show Material Orientation |
||
Select this option to visualize the fastener's material orientation. | ||
By default, this option is unchecked. | ||
|
||
Show Thickness Stack-Up Order |
||
Select this option to visualize the fastener's thickness stack-up order. | ||
By default, this option is unchecked. | ||
|
||
In certain cases where the ordering thickness
crossing criteria cannot be applied, some visualization attributes are not
displayed. For further information, refer to Ordering Thickness Crossing Criteria from the Report chapter. |
||
|
||
Note that, in visualization mode:
then all joint components are automatically switch to Design mode. The Automatic Switch to Design Mode option must be activated
to visualize the desired options. |
