Author Frame Generator Notch end treatments

1. In a part file, sketch a closed profile of the frame member shape. This sketched shape represents both the base (blue) and notch (yellow) profiles.

   You can sketch a custom notch (closed) profile together with the base profile if the notch profile is not the same as the base profile.

   Parameters that can differ in size among different members drive both the base profile and the notch profile.

2. Extrude the base profile to create the frame member.
3. Convert the part to an iPart.
4. Before you proceed to the Structural Shape Authoring dialog box, position the part in the graphics for a suitable thumbnail view.
5. Author the iPart to Content Center. If the notch profile is not the same as the base profile, select the customized notch profile during authoring.

   The part is available in the Content Center for use in the Notch command.
