Convert to sheet metal module : Redefine faces

Menu access : Sheet metal | Convert to sheet metal | Redefine faces

Description :

Allows you to redefine the side of one or several faces.

The automatic calculation can be incorrect. But it is possible to adjust manually the results thanks to this function.

General philosophy :

Choose an option :

• CHANGE FACE SIDE : Allows to redefine manually the side of each faces. Example : if the selected face belongs to the 1st side, then you can define it as belonging to the other side (2nd side) or as being a sheet metal field.

• REBUILD LATERAL FACES : Redefines automatically the sheet metal field. The principle is the following : let f1 a face belonging to side 1 and f2 a face belonging to side 2, if f1 is connected to f2 by one or several edges, then f1 and f2 will become sheet metal fields.

Specific point(s) :

A selection by box selection allows to select simultaneously several faces.
