The geometry can be checked by all parts, only visible parts, selected parts, or selected surfaces.
The following methods and options can be used to check the geometry.
- Results Placement
specifies how the results will be placed. The surfaces that are found can be shown, placed in a specified part, or in a specified subset.
- Check Surfaces
Edges
Specify whether the geometry should be checked for Single edges or Multiple edges.
Curvature/Area
If Curvature is selected, specify a High or Low curvature and a Ref. Angle. Surfaces with curvatures higher or lower than the reference angle will be found. For example, if a Low curvature of 5 degrees is specified, all surfaces with curvature less than 5 degrees will be found.
If Area is selected, specify Large or Small, and the Ref. Area. If Large is selected, then surfaces that have an area larger than the Ref. Area will be found, and if Small is selected, then surfaces that have an area smaller than the Ref. Area will be found.
Normal
This will find all surfaces with a normal within the tolerance angle from the specified axis.
