Deleting an anchor plane

Any anchor planes that you have created can be permanently removed from the model.

Before you delete an anchor plane, make sure you have a deflection (warpage) result displayed and an anchor plane created.

You can access all existing anchor planes by clicking Manage Anchor Planes in the Warpage Visualization Tools dialog.

Note: Deleting an anchor plane is not the same as restoring the original anchor plane. The Restore Original Position command does not actually delete the anchor planes.

1. Click (Results tab > Warpage panel > Visualize). The Warpage Visualization Tools dialog appears.
2. Select Anchors from the box on the left of the dialog. The IDs of the nodes in the active anchor plane appear in the Anchor nodes field on the right of the dialog.
3. Click Manage Anchor Planes and then select the anchor to be deleted from the Anchors dialog.
4. Click Delete to delete the anchor plane.

Tip: You can drag the anchor plane nodes about the part to update the anchor plane in the warpage result display. You can also increase or decrease the size of the anchor icons ( ) by pressing and holding down the Shift key while dragging your mouse cursor either towards you or away from you.
