A round created at a point where two or three areas or surfaces meet or intersect.
|
corner transition
|
A round transition that is applicable to round pieces converging, meeting, or intersecting at corners.
|
dependency
|
A state where one object uses a functionality of another object.
|
dome
|
A concave shape whose distinguishing feature is that the concavity faces downward.
|
draft direction
|
Direction that is used to measure the draft angle. You can define it by selecting a plane, a straight edge, a datum axis, or an axis of a coordinate system.
|
draft hinge
|
Lines or curves on the draft surfaces that the surfaces are pivoted about.
|
draft surface
|
The surface of the model that is being drafted.
|
edit
|
Edits the dimensions of the selected object.
|
edit definition
|
Edits the properties of the selected object.
|
edit references
|
Edits the references of the selected object.
|
envelope
|
The smallest bar-shaped outline that totally encloses the geometry of the reference model.
|
extrusion
|
A manufacturing process where a billet of material is pushed or drawn or both through a die to create a shaped rod, rail, or pipe. The process usually creates long length of the final product and may be continuous or semi-continuous in nature. Some materials are hot drawn whilst other may be cold drawn.
|
full round
|
A full round is one in which every part of the surface or the circumference is equidistant from the center.
|
graph feature
|
A diagram that exhibits a relationship, often functional, between two sets of numbers as a set of points having coordinates determined by the relationship.
|
group member
|
Individual features that belong to a set or group.
|
helical sweep
|
A section that is swept along a trajectory.
|
lip
|
A protrusion on one part while being a cut on another.
|
local push
|
To deform a surface by pushing or pulling on a circular or rectangular region of a surface.
|
mirrored merge
|
The consolidation of the features of a mirrored entity.
|
pattern
|
A model or feature used as an archetype to create instances.
|
pattern leader
|
A feature selected for patterning is called the pattern leader.
|
protrusion
|
A part that protrudes or extends outward.
|
rib
|
A projecting molding on the underside of a vault.
|
round set
|
A group of rounds of the same kind that belong together and are used together.

|
straight blend

|
subsection
|
A section of a section or a part of a part. A part of something already divided.
|
sweep
|
To cover or extend over an area.
|
swept blend
|
A blend that is influenced by a trajectory on which the blend sections are located.
|
tangency condition
|
A surface or curve having contact at a single point or along a line without crossing.
|
thin feature
|
A feature that is relatively small from one surface to the opposite surface.
|
toroidal bend
|
A ring-shaped surface generated by rotating a circle around an axis that does not intersect the circle
|
transformation
|
The process or result of changing from one appearance, state, or phase to another.
|
tweak
|
To make minor adjustments to improve the shape of the geometry.
|
unpattern
|
An operation on a group pattern that allows you to remove the pattern definition and leave the pattern instances as individual groups.
|
variation
|
One that is slightly different from others of the same kind.
