After you select Prism as a workframe type, the Workframe dialog contains 2 tabs: Size/Division and Axis descriptions.
Options on the Size/Division tab:
- Base radius - define a radius of the circle circumscribed on the prism base, and the number of radial divisions
- Top radius - define a radius of the circle circumscribed on the prism top
- Height - define the height of a workframe, and the number of divisions along the workframe height
If the Non-uniform option next to Height is not selected, a workframe will be generated automatically based on the parameter values defined in the edit fields. If Non-uniform is selected, the edit fields become inaccessible. The (…) button becomes available; click it to open the Lines distribution dialog where you can define the position of successive workframe axes.
Options on the Axis descriptions tab:
- Radius - define an axis description along the workframe radius. If this is selected, the description will be generated; if it is not selected, the axis description will not be generated.
- Width - not available
- Height - define an axis description along the workframe height. If this is selected, the description will be generated; if it is not selected, the axis description will not be generated.
For each of the options, there are 3 fields:
- Prefix - define a prefix of workframe axes for the automatic description of workframe axes
- Start value - define a start value for workframe axes for the automatic description of workframe axes
- Step - define a value of increment for successive workframe axes for the automatic description of workframe axes
If the User-defined option next to the options is not selected, a workframe description will be generated automatically based on the parameter values defined in the edit fields. If User-defined is selected for any of the options, the edit fields for that option become inaccessible. The (…) button becomes available; click it to open the Lines description dialog where you can define the description of successive workframe axes.
