Update
All features of a part are scanned in the order of the
update (which is not necessarily the order of the specification tree).
The current position in the scan graph does not correspond to the in
work object: indeed the underlined object in the graph is not
necessarily the one underlined in the specification tree.
|
- Datum features appear first; geometrical sets and
ordered geometrical sets do not appear in the Scan Graph.
- Deactivated features appear in the Scan Graph.
- The The part is put in no show, so is its 3D display, in
order to build a new 3D display that contains the same
features but in a different order.
As a consequence, if a geometrical set or an ordered
geometrical set is in no show, it is ignored and its
elements are considered as being in show.
To put the contents of this geometrical set or ordered
geometrical set in no show, use the Geometrical_Set.x
object > Hide components contextual command. Refer to
the
Hiding/Showing Geometrical Sets or Ordered Geometrical Sets
and Their Contents chapter for further information.

- Click Display Graph
.
The Scan Graph dialog box appears and displays all the features
belonging to Scan1 part.
|
|
-
Select a feature in the Scan Graph or in the
specification tree. The application highlights the feature in question
in the specification tree as well as in the geometry area and make it
current.
In our example, we chose Solid Functional Set.1.
|
- A preview of the current object's parents is available:
- if the parents are visible: the thickness of lines and
points is increased and the surfaces' edges are in dotted
lines; faces and edges are highlighted.
- if the parents are not visible: the surfaces appear as
transparent; lines and points are in yellow dotted lines.
- If a parent of the in work object is in no show, it is
temporarily shown when its child is the in work object.

-
Click Previous
to
move to the previous feature, that is Sketch.1.
-
Click First
to move to the first feature, that is Point.1.
|
In case there are several datum features, the application
highlights the last one as there are all scanned at the same time. |
-
Click Next
to
move to the next feature, that is Point.2.
|
Scanning Next and Previous skip datum and
deactivated features. |
-
Click Last
to
move to the last feature, that is Extrude.4.
|
Moving to the next or last feature enables to update elements
that are not up-to-date. |
-
Click First to Update
to
move to the first element to be updated and consequently update it.
If both geometry and part are up-to-date, an information panel appears:
-
Click this icon again to find the next element to be
updated and so on until an information panel appears to inform you that
both geometry and part are up-to-date.
-
Click Play Update
to replay the update of the geometry.
A progression bar is displayed, while the scenario is being replayed.
In case of update errors, the replay stops at the first error. The
Update Error dialog box opens.
-
Click Exit
to
exit the command.
In the geometry area and the specification tree, the application
highlights the current object.
If the object was in no show, it is put in show as long as it stays
current.
|
- Defining a feature as current without scanning the whole
part is possible using the Define in Work Object
contextual command on the desired feature. This feature is put
in show if needed, and keeps its status even if another feature
is defined as the in work object.
- When clicking a sub-element in the 3D geometry, it is in
fact the feature used to generate this sub-element which is
selected as the in work object. Likewise, this feature is edited
when double-clicking a sub-element.
- When a collapsed contextual element is highlighted, it is the node of its set that is highlighted
in the Scan Graph.
- To display 3D parameters attached to Part Design features,
check the Parameters of features and constraints
option in the Tools > Options > Infrastructure > Part
Infrastructure > Display.
