• Measure >> Model Deviation command displays the color map of the distance deviation between all the shells of model.

Step   

Execute Measure >> Model Deviation command as follows:

1. Select Measure >> Model Deviation from the menu or click the icon from the Measure toolbar.

2. Select shells. ( See Shell selection )

3. A color map is displayed on shells and the following dialog box appears on the screen.

       

Input a desired number in Calc. Tolerance field to change the Acceoptable Tolerance and Maximum Range.

• The system displays the distance deviation between selected shells with a color map as shown in the following figure.

• Resulted color map will show only absolute value.

• though there may be several distance value because of multi shell calculation. RapidForm will calculate distance within given tolerlance.

• If you move the mouse over the color map, deviation value is shown in real-time.

• User can change color bat into horizontal or vertical with Vertical, Horizontal option. Default option for Color bar is Vertical.

• Using Attach Current Color Map to Vertex color on RMB menu, User can convert color map into vertex color.

• You can customize the color bar by View  >> Customize Color Bar or pop-up menu by right click on digits in color bar.
