Creating list of objects, reccomended for deformation

Basic principles of component deformation

A component model may contain a large number of objects that can be changed within the deformation process. In this case, the list of objects displayed in the deformation process becomes too long. In addition, similar model objects may have similar names. All this makes it difficult to select the required object during the deformation process. For ease of working with objects, you can create a separate list, including only those that are supposed to be deformed.

The list of objects recommended for deformation is created using the command Deformable buildings .

After invoking the command, a table appears on the Parameter panel that contains all model objects, available for editing within the deformation of the component.

Procedure

1.In the Parameter panel table, specify the model objects that should be included in the list of recommended ones. To do this, enable the options in the corresponding cells of the Deform column.

2.If necessary, enter additional information about the objects in the cells of the Comment column. Adding a comment is available for all objects in the model, regardless of whether they are selected as recommended or not.

3.Confirm the creation of the list by clicking Save in the Parameter panel header. The created list will be saved in the current model, and the command will be completed.

4.If you want to terminate the command without saving changes, click Finish .

When further working with the model, the object added to the list of recommended ones can be excluded from calculation. In this case, it becomes unavailable for deformation and is removed from the list. Also, the operations of constructing bodies and surfaces are removed from the list if disable editing is imposed on these bodies/surfaces..

If the link between objects is disabled, and also if the object is created in the dependent execution, adding to the list and entering a comment are performed in this execution.

For objects of dependent version, that maintain a link with the source objects (see the sections Editing and deleting objects), adding to the list of those recommended for deformation is performed in the source version. Comments on the objects are also specified there. In the dependent version, Deform and Comment cells in the rows of these objects are unavailable and have a gray background.

If the link between objects is disabled, and also if the object is created in a dependent version, adding to the list and entering a comment are performed in this version.
