Setting a Box Spatial Rule
To define the box spatial rule:
1. Select the spatial rule icon
on the
Visualization tab, then select
Set Box Spatial Rule. The
Box Spatial Rule Coordinates window opens. By default, the X, Y, and Z values for the minimum and maximum coordinates are based on the current selection in the
Visualization tab.
2. Enter the new X, Y, and Z coordinate values in both the minimum and maximum coordinate input fields. You can enter zero as well as positive and negative real numbers.
| All six coordinate values are required. The minimum values must be smaller than the corresponding maximum values. |
3. By default, parts that are partially within the box volume are included in the structure. Select Remove items that are partially outside the bounding box to include only those parts that are completely within the box volume.
4. Click OK to dismiss the Box Spatial Rule Coordinates window and apply the rule to the part structure.
| The bounding box for positioning and extended positioning assemblies may appear blank, and they are not used or evaluated. |
