Including or Excluding Openings from the Analytical Surface

The presence of openings in a surface analytical model can make it overly complicated for analysis. However, you can simplify the analytical model by specifying which openings should be included in it.

Including / excluding openings from the surface of analytical elements

  1. Click Analyze tab Analytical Model Tools panel Analytical Adjust.
  2. Edit Analytical Model panel Openings to reveal check boxes for each opening.
  3. Clear the check box to exclude the opening from the analytical model. The opening boundary fills with the surface color.

    Openings with their check boxes selected are included in the analytical surface.

  4. Press Esc or click Modify to exit the tool.
  5. Click (Finish Edit Mode) to save changes.
