Adding a Section
1. In the Model Tree, right-click a blend feature and choose
Edit Definition. The feature creation dialog box opens.
2. Select the Section attribute and click Define. The system shows the SECTIONS and SPECIFY menus. The SPECIFY menu lists the existing blend sections.
3. Choose Add from the SECTIONS menu, then choose the number of the section you are adding from the SPECIFY menu. This allows you to insert a new section after an existing one.
For example, if you are adding a section to a blend that already has three sections, the options in the SPECIFY menu are Section 2, Section 3, and Section 4. The Section 2 option inserts your new section between the existing sections 1 and 2. The Section 3 option inserts your new section between the existing sections 2 and 3. The Section 4 option places your new section after the existing section 3.
4. Enter the x-, y-, and z-axis rotation angles for the section you are creating.
5. The system displays a subwindow with the sketcher grid. Sketch the new section and regenerate it.
6. Enter the depth value for the new section.
7. The SECTION and SPECIFY menus are redisplayed, so you can redefine another section, if desired. When you have finished, click OK in the dialog box to regenerate the feature.
