10.9.9. Parts - Zoning - Transition

This window lets you create a transition at any surface of the block you are zoning.

Transitions along

Specify at which of the six surfaces of the block you want your transition to be created, by selecting and I, J or K-plane and whether it is the corresponding lower or upper surface of the block.

Transition orientation

The orientation of the transition.

Transition Types

The image above shows you the two transition types you can use, namely a 4-2 transition and a 3-1 transition. To use a particular type, the index range in the direction of the transition orientation must be a multiple of 4 or 3 respectively.

A message will tell if a valid transition type exists for the boundary you have defined. If more than one type is valid, you will be asked to choose the transition type you want to use.
