A |
|
| absolute coordinates | Coordinates that specify a location in relation to the current coordinate system origin (0,0,0). |
| aggregation | The collecting of features or sketches into a Part Design feature in the specification tree. |
| annotation | An entity that provides information for the drawing. Texts are annotation entities. |
| associativity | The interdependent relationships between entities. |
B |
|
| body | See part body. |
C |
|
| chamfer | A cut through the thickness of the feature at an angle, giving a sloping edge. |
| child | A status defining the genealogical relationship between a feature or element and another feature or element. For instance, a pad is the child of a sketch. See also parent. |
| constraint | A geometric or dimension relation between two elements. These relations are restrictions for these elements. |
D |
|
| deactivate | To suppresses the behavior of a feature, visually and geometrically. |
| draft angle | A feature provided with a face with an angle and a pulling direction. |
F |
|
| feature | A component of a part. For instance, shafts, fillets and drafts are features. |
| fillet | A curved surface of a constant or variable radius that is
tangent to, and that joins two surfaces. Together, these three surfaces form either an inside corner or an outside corner. |
G |
|
| groove | A feature corresponding to a cut in the shape of a revolved feature. |
H |
|
| hole | A feature corresponding to an opening through a feature. Holes can be simple, tapered, counterbored, countersunk, or counterdrilled. |
M |
|
| mirror | A feature created by duplicating an initial feature. The duplication is defined by symmetry. |
O |
|
| origin | The 3D point having the location 0,0,0 in any coordinate system. |
P |
|
| pad | A feature created by extruding a profile. |
| parent | A status defining the genealogical relationship between a feature or element and another feature or element. For instance, a pad is the parent of a draft. |
| part | A 3D entity obtained by combining different features. |
| part body | A component of a part made of a combination of several features. From Version 5 Release 14, bodies and part bodies include shape design features. |
| pattern | A set of similar features repeated in the same feature or part. |
| A feature corresponding to an opening through a feature. The shape of the opening corresponds to the extrusion of a profile. | |
| profile | An open or closed shape including arcs and lines created by the profile command in the Sketcher workbench. |
R |
|
| reorder | An operation consisting in reorganizing the order of creation of the features. |
| rib | A feature obtained by sweeping a profile along a center curve. |
S |
|
| scaling | An operation that resizes features to a percentage of their initial sizes. |
| shaft | A revolved feature |
| shell | A hollowed out feature |
| sketch | A set of geometric elements created in the Sketcher workbench. For instance, a sketch may include a profile, construction lines and points. |
| slot | A feature consisting of a passage through a part obtained by sweeping a profile along a center curve. |
| solid body | A body created with application versions prior to Version 5 Release 14. Such a body contains no shape design features. |
| split | A feature created by cutting a part or feature into another part or feature using a plane or face. |
| stiffener | A feature used for reinforcing a feature or part. |
