Point: Slope to Surface
Add a point that is located on a target surface at a specified slope from another point.
Properties
Specify the following parameters in the Properties panel.
| Point | |
| Point Number | Specifies the point number. You can change the automatically generated Point Number value. |
| Point Codes | Specifies the codes assigned to the point. |
| Point Geometry Type | |
| Type | Specifies the point type: |
| Point Geometry Properties | |
| From Point | Specifies the point to which the other geometry property values are relative. |
| Slope | Specifies the slope value from the point specified in the From Point row. Click [...] to open the Expression Editor, where you can enter or calculate a value. |
| Reverse Slope Direction | Reverses the Slope, drawing the slope in the opposite direction. |
| Surface Target | Specifies the surface target parameter. |
| Link | |
| Add Link To From Point | Draws a link from the point specified in the From Point row to the current point. |
| Name | Specifies the name of the link. |
| Codes | Specifies the codes assigned to the link. |
| ApplyAOR |
Specifies whether superelevation or cant will be applied to the link. Note: The ApplyAOR check box affects how the subassembly is previewed in the Subassembly Composer and how the subassembly behaves when it is used in Autodesk Subassembly Composer. You can use the Superelevation tab or the Cant tab to define values for previewing the superelevation or cant effect for the subassembly in the Preview panel. You can use the Input/Output Parameters tab to add parameters that are brought into Autodesk Subassembly Composer when the subassembly is imported.
|
| Miscellaneous | |
| Comment | Indicates notes about the point. Comments can be displayed in the Preview panel. |
Examples
