Link Number Specifies the link number. You can change the automatically generated Link Number value.

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.

Examples

To see an example of how this geometry element is used, open the following Sample PKT file:

Link Example.pkt

In the example, the L1, L2, and L3 are automatically drawn between points. L4 is manually drawn between P3 and P4.

Note: In this example, because the links create a closed area, a shape can be created.
