Improved Selection of Cylindrical Surfaces for MBD Annotations
Creo Parametric 11.0.0.0
Videos
Description
When an annotation is placed on a cylindrical feature such as a hole or shaft, both cylinder halves are now selected as a semantic reference for this annotation. This enhancement eliminates the need to select the second half manually.
The automatic collection of surfaces is supported during the first-time placement of the annotations, and when new cylindrical instances are being added. This behavior is supported for all types of annotations.
Benefits
• Simplified selection of multiple cylindrical features requiring fewer clicks.
• Improved usability when selecting holes or shafts as semantic references of annotations.
Additional Information
Tips: | None. |
Limitations: | The automatic selection of the second half of the cylinder is not supported for the advanced collection methods like seed-and-bound. If a cylinder is divided using the divide surface feature, Creo will not collect the second half of the cylinder. |
Does this replace existing functionality? | No. |
Configuration option associated with this functionality: | None. |
