The dialog box Pulling Direction Analysis is displayed.
A Reference Direction is proposed and a first analysis is
performed:

The
Reference
Direction is initialized as follows:
- if you placed the compass on the set of surfaces to analyze, the
dialog box proposes the direction of the compass,
- if you did not place the compass on the set of surfaces, and if
a main pulling direction exists, the dialog box proposes this main
pulling direction as the Reference Direction.
- if you did not place the compass on the set of surfaces, and if
no main pulling direction exists, the Reference Direction
proposed is 0,0,1.
You can type a new Reference Direction, or change it
using the compass.
Click Reset to return to the initial value. |
