Results of checking the continuity are in the Result group on the Parameters Panel. In the upper part, in the line Machined pairs, the total number of verified vertex pairs is displayed. In the line Number of junctures, the number of pairs of vertices or faces that formed the joints is displayed.
In the group Condition, data on the number of junctures where each of the continuity criteria is met/not met are placed.

•When the Precision of juncture button is pressed, the Successful line displays the number of junctures meeting the G0 continuity criterion out of the total number of junctures.
If certain junctures do not meet this criterion, the row with information about the juncture with maximum distance exceeding the allowable accuracy value is displayed below.

•When the Tangency button is pressed, the number of junctures satisfying the G1 continuity criterion is successfully displayed in the Successful line from the number of junctures satisfying the G0 criterion.
If certain junctures do not meet this criterion, the row with information about the juncture with maximum angle exceeding the allowable deviation angle is displayed below.

•When the Smoothness button is pressed, the number of junctures satisfying the G2 continuity criterion out of the junctures satisfying the G1 criterion is displayed in the Successful row .
If certain junctures do not meet this criterion, the row with information about the juncture with maximum curvature deviation exceeding the allowable relative deviation is displayed below.

Detailed results of the checking of continuity are displayed in the table located below on the Parameter Toolbar.

Table of continuity check results

The information about checked junctures is displayed in the table located in the Result. A table row corresponds to each checked juncture. The table contains the following columns:

•No.: ordinal number of the juncture,

•G0: the table cell is ticked if the G0 (Joint Accuracy) criterion is met,

•Distance: the distance between vertices of the curves/borders of faces in a joint,

•G1: the table cell is ticked if the G1 (Tangency) criterion is met,

•Angle: the absolute value of the angle between the tangent vectors of the joined curves,

•G2: the table cell is ticked if the G2 (Smoothness) criterion is met,

•% offset: the relative deviation of curvature of the joined curves/surfaces.

Use the button on the left above the table to display results of checking of continuity in the Information window, see the section below.

Results of checking of continuity in the Information window

To view the results of continuity check in the Information window, use Show in Information Window button above the table of results of checking of continuity. It is available if the table contains a row with data related to checking of at least one juncture. The Information window displays the data contained in the Result group on the Parameters Panel.
