Defines properties for the job-related infill diagram.
When you run the command, you may be prompted to update identifiers:
db_ath_tags_update
This happens if you have carried out a common part recognition with the command Assign tags. Identifiers should be updated if dimensional changes have occurred. If in doubt, we recommend that you always update the identifiers, otherwise errors may occur in the BOM.
Dialog box Infill diagram (job-related)
db_ath_st3d_panel_ext
Dialog box section Elevation
Weather side Creates a diagram from the weather side viewing direction.
Room side Creates a diagram from the internal viewing direction.
Dialog box section Create
Analyze layers separately Generates separate drawings for each layer of the infill (except cavities). This option is a good idea for sheet metal panels, for example.
Rotate outlines Rotates the infill outline if possible so that at least one side is aligned parallel to the X axis of the UCS.
Dialog box section Profiled panel
Unfold sheet metal Generates developments of folded sheet metal.
Only analyze folded sheets Only generates developments of folded sheet metal.
Insert finished dimension Draws the outline of the finished sheet metal in the development.
With the above methods inserted sheet developments can be imported into the Sheet metal processing where they can be processed further. You will find further information on this in the section Sheet metal processing.
Dialog box section Target
WCS Produces diagrams in the World Coordinate System (X/Y plane) of the current drawing.
UCS Produces diagrams inn the User Coordinate System (X/Y plane) of the current drawing.
When you use the options WCS or UCS and terminate the dialog box with OK, you can insert the selected infills consecutively into the drawing.
Unit drawing Produces the diagrams in separate drawings for each infill or layer. You can carry out settings for the file (name, storage location, etc.) in the Drop-down menu Workshop drawing.
Drop-down menu Dimensions
db_ath_st3d_panel_ext_bemassung
The switch to the left of the drop-down menu activates dimensioning. Important dimension settings (dimension style, actual text height and dimension layer) are displayed for information.
Dialog box section Dimension
Maximum dimension Dimensions the largest linear frame of the enclosing outline rectangle.
Incremental dimension Generates linear dimension chains for all dimension points of the outline.
Angle Dimensions all angles of the outline which are not 90°.
Radius Dimensions all radii of the outline.
Bulge Dimensions the receptacle for arc-shaped segments.
Center point Dimensions the center for arc-shaped segments.
Edge length Dimensions all outline edges with aligned dimensions.
Rectangle Also dimensions rectangular outlines (otherwise only model slices).
Dialog box section Optional
Model dimension Uses special dimension methods for model slices. You will find further information on this in the section Dimensioning options.
If you quit the dialog box with OK, the infill diagrams are generated. If they generate workshop drawings, they are automatically saved. If you insert the infill diagrams into the WCS or UCS of the drawing, then follows:
Input request
x infill(s) found
Specify insertion point:
Use the mouse or enter co-ordinates to specify the insertion point for the infill. This input request is repeated until all outlines have been inserted.
Note
• If you have activated the option Analyze all layers in the Dialog box Apply infill, the outlines of all layers for these infills are generated.
• The outlines are inserted on the material layer of the corresponding infills. You will find further information about material layers in the chapter Material.
