In this task you will learn how to fragment multi-arc bodies into mono-arc bodies.
Open the FreeStyle_Part_23.CATPart document.
-
Select the curve.
-
Click the Fragmentation icon
in the Shape Modification toolbar.
The selected curve is previewed with separators indicating the limits of each arc, thus allowing the pre-visualization of the resulting curves.
The Type frame does not apply for curves.
-
Click the Keep original icon
from the Dashboard if you want to keep the initial curve when fragmenting
the body. -
Click OK.
The curve is fragmented in as many curves as there were arcs in the initial curve. This means that independent curves are created.
In the example, we assigned a different color to each of the resulting mono-arc curves.
- Multi-selection is available.
- This function enables you to fragment surfaces as well, see Fragmenting Surfaces.
