Part View Details

The Part View Toolbox contains a hierarchical view of the part. To navigate the part view:

1. If an object has a “+” in its left margin, click “+” to expand the view to reveal objects that subordinate. Click on the ”-“ to collapse the view and hide the subordinate objects. Double clicking on the object also performs the same function.

2. Clicking on object in the tree view will select the object in the graphics window. This selection method is good for distinguishing between overlapping objects in the graphics window. Make sure you click on the name and not the check box. See item 4 below.

3. Clicking on an object also reveals the button for that feature. Clicking on this button brings up menu of actions you can perform on the object. The actions available are dependent on the object type. Right clicking on the object in the tree view also reveals this menu.

4. Features have a checkbox. If you uncheck the object it will be excluded from the next toolpath generation.

All objects are represented in the tree view with the exception of geometry. Click on an icon below for more information.
