Faces in Solid

Picks the part of an Analysis Body's surface that lies inside a Solid, to place loads, supports and connectors on. The pick is made at analysis time on the model's domains, so one selection can serve several models; wire a Domain to tie it to one body.

Inputs

Solid Solid

The Solid marking the surface area to pick. Required.

Takes: any block that gives Solid (102 blocks)
Entity Choice

What to pick of the part inside the Solid: its Surface (default), its Edges, or its Volume (all its material there). A consumer that cannot use the choice refuses it.

Reverse Yes/No

Pick what lies outside the Solid instead of inside.

Tolerance Number

Margin in mm added to the Solid while picking (default 0.001); a negative value shrinks it instead.

Domain Analysis Body

Optional Analysis Body to pick on. Unset: the domains of whichever model is analysed.

Takes: Analysis Body
