About the Edit Round User Interface
The Edit Round tab consists of a tab with collectors and a command, tabs, a dragger, and shortcut menus. Use the dragger and shortcut menus for expediency. Use the tabs for rule-based surface set selection, selecting attachment references chain, and viewing your selections.
Shortcut Menus
Right-click the graphics window to access shortcut menu commands.
• Geometry Rule Surfaces—Opens the Geometry Rules dialog box. Available for rounds with a circular cross section.
• Shape Surfaces—Opens the Shape Surface Sets dialog box.
• Round surfaces—Activates the round surfaces collector.
• Pattern/Symmetry/Mirror Feature—Collects a pattern, mirror, pattern recognition, or symmetry recognition feature used to propagate the edit round feature to all instances such that the pattern, mirror, or symmetry is maintained.
• Clear—Clears the last selected collector.
• Remove interfering geometry—Removes rounds that interfere with the edited round geometry.
• Cross section shape list—Sets the cross section shape, and shows the commands for the shape.

 For features created in versions earlier than Creo 3, only the circular cross section shape is available. |
◦ Circular
◦ Conic
◦ C2 Continuous
◦ D1 x D2 Conic
◦ D1 x D2 C2
Commands
• Round collector—Shows the number of round surfaces.
• Remove round check box—Removes the selected round geometry.
• Round cross section shape menu—Sets the shape of the cross section.

▪ C2 Shape Factor box—Sets the sharpness of the round. Its value can be from .05 to .95.
▪ Radius—Sets the radius of the round.
◦ D1xD2 conic rounds
▪ Conic Parameter box—Sets the sharpness of the round. Its value can be from .05 to .95.
▪ D1 and D2—Sets the conic distance.
▪ 
—Reverses the side of the conic distance.
◦ D1xD2 C2 rounds
▪ C2 Shape Factor box—Sets the sharpness of the round. Its value can be from .05 to .95.

Tabs
• References
◦ Round surfaces—Shows the rounds that are selected for editing.
▪ Details—Opens the Surface Sets dialog box.
• Options
◦ Attach round geometry check box—Attaches the round geometry to the underlying surface. When this option is not selected, you have the option to Create end surfaces where the round overlaps other geometry.
◦ Remove interfering rounds and chamfers—Removes rounds or chamfers that interfere with round regeneration.
◦ Pattern/Symmetry/Mirror feature—Shows a pattern, mirror, pattern recognition, or symmetry recognition feature that is used to propagate the edit round feature to all instances such that the pattern, mirror, or symmetry is maintained.
• Properties—Shows the name of the feature. Click
