This option allows you to project or imprint points onto an edge. Target entities must be 3D Edges. If the imprint option is set to No, Ansys DesignModeler will create construction points at the projected location.
Example 63: Projection Feature's Points On Edge Usage
The first figure shows the model prior to the projection operation. It shows a vertex of a straight edge selected for the projection and a curved edges selected as the target. Here the setting for the direction is the default None (Closest Direction) and the imprint option is set to No.
The second figure shows the model after the projection operation. The spot in green is the result of the projection of a selected point on the target edge.
