轮廓的新信息在框架特征中使用后会出现在切割清单表格中,框架特征后面是用于创建表格的切割清单表格特征。单击窗格右侧的 切割清单图标 以打开表格面板。

Steps: Form

Form tags designate parts to be used as Form features on the sheet metal model. To tag parts:

  1. Click the Tag icon () to open the Tag dialog:

    Tag dialog

  2. Select Form for the tag purpose:

    Tag dialog: Form

  3. In the Part to add field, select the part in the Parts list or graphics area from which to add to the sheet metal.
  4. In the Part to remove field, select the part in the Parts list or graphics area from which to subtract from the sheet metal.
  5. Select the Sketch for flat view. This is the sketch used for the Sheet metal model's flat view.
  6. Select the Form origin mate connector. This determines the direction where the form is shaped in the Sheet metal model. Hover over the graphics area model to select an implicit or explicit mate connector. If none is selected, the feature creates one at the Part Studio's origin.
  7. Click the checkmark (接受复选标记图标).

You can have only 1 valid form tag feature per Part Studio. Create 1 form per Part Studio.
