Modify CAD Surfaces - Normal dialog

The Modify CAD Surfaces - Normal tool allows you to move one or more faces in the normal direction.

To access this tool, click (Geometry tab > Modify panel > Modify CAD surfaces > Normal).

Widget	Explanation
Apply	Commits the geometry change.
Select CAD faces	The list of the faces that you selected on the graphic display. These are the faces you wish to modify
Search	Automatically detects fillet and chamfer faces related to the selected faces.
Fillet/chamfer faces	Lists the fillet and chamfer faces related to the selected faces. You can: Accept the list provided by Search function, or Select the faces on the graphic display, or Enter the face ID numbers.
Preserve shape of fillets/chamfers faces	Checked by default. This option enables the preservation of the shape of fillets and chamfers around the Selected CAD faces.
Distance (mm)	Enter the distance you want to move the selected faces in the normal direction.
Preview	Displays the changes to the CAD geometry on the graphic display without applying them to the model.
Save CAD modifications	Enables the geometry modification to be recognized as a CAD modification Variable for a Parametric Study. This CAD modification Variable includes the Selected CAD faces, the normal direction and the Distance specified for the current Geometry modification. Choose a recognizable name for the geometry modification you are saving. Once saved, this geometry modification will appear in the CAD modifications list on the Geometry ribbon for future reference.
