Displays properties for scaling shrinkages. Scaling shrinkage is defined in one or two directions by the expansion ratio and the expansion direction.
The order in which the properties display in your view depends on your configuration.
Approval State
Specifies the status of the selected object or filter. Changing this property sets the Status. The display depends on your access level. You might be unable to change the status of the object. The list is defined by the ApprovalStatus codelist.
Smart 3Dx saves an object to the database when you change that object's status. Use Undo (CTRL + Z) to reverse the status change.
You can only edit or manipulate an object with a status of Working.
Created by
Specifies the name of the person who created the object.
Date Created
Specifies the creation date of the object.
Date Last Modified
Specifies the date of the last modification to the object.
Hyperlink
Specifies the URL or local file path associated with the object. Click the hyperlink to open the page or object in your default browser. Point to the hyperlink to display the URL or path as a tooltip.
Description
Specifies the descriptive text associated with the hyperlink.
URL
Specifies the web address or local file name associated with the hyperlink. The URL must include the protocol, such as http: or https:, as well as the domain name. For example, https://hexagonppm.com/.
Last Modified by
Specifies the name of the person who last modified the object.
Name
Specifies the name of the selected object. If the name is too long to entirely display in the box, point to the box to display the complete name as a tool tip. If the name is not defined by a rule, User Defined displays. If this name is generated by a naming rule, Naming Rule displays. If you type a name in this box, Smart 3Dx automatically changes the naming rule to User Defined.
Primary Shrinkage
Specifies a factor for the amount of extra material to apply in the primary direction.
Secondary Shrinkage
Specifies a factor for the amount of extra material to apply in the secondary direction.
Shrinkage Mode
Specifies the active shrinkage mode.
Coordinate System
Select primary and secondary direction vectors as axis.
Edge
Select primary and secondary direction vectors as plate edges.
Global
Primary and secondary direction as standard vectors [X (1, 0, 0), Y (0, 1, 0), Z (0, 0, 1)].
Vector
User can create shrinkage in any direction with the help of Shrinkage Direction Vectors control.
-
Validate calculates the primary/secondary vector with respect to the plate normal and primary/secondary vector.
Shrinkage Rule
Specifies the shrinkage rule.
Shrinkage Type
Specifies the direction type of shrinkage to apply.
By Axis
Select a grid system axis to define the shrinkage direction.
By Edge
Select one of two edges so that it can determine the shrinkage directions.
By Vector
-
The software provides one more list called selection method and depends upon the selection method there you can select the primary and secondary directions.
Tertiary Shrinkage
Specifies a factor for the amount of extra material to apply in the tertiary direction. Use values from 0mm to 1m for plates and profiles.
