• Makes Style more consistent with the core Creo mode.
Additional Information
Tips: | None. |
Limitations: | • Vertices do not have unique IDs. This results in the tool not separating a curve/edge and its vertices when the Row Display is set to list all uses of a reference in a single row. This will result in a warning indicator. • Flip is not available when the child feature or reference has failed. • Flip will only work if any used trim/extended ends are defined by values, and not if the trim/extended ends are defined by references. |
Does this replace existing functionality? | No. |
Configuration option associated with this functionality: | None. |
