Performing an Inclusion Analysis

This task shows you how to find out if elements that are logically contained in an area (in the specification tree) are also physically located within the contour of the area (in the drawing).  
1. Right-click the area on the specification tree.
2. From the pull-down menu, select the area object and select the Verify Inclusion option.

The Inclusion dialog box is displayed.

 

3. Define the parameters for the analysis:
  • Type
    • Inclusion reports which elements are partially inside or touching the selected area.
    • Inclusion No Contact reports which elements are completely outside of the selected area.
  • Scope:
    • 1 Level checks the inclusion status of elements one level down from the area in the specification tree.
    • All levels checks the inclusion status of all elements below the area in the specification tree.
4. Select OK.
