Use the
Contact Point Group Editor panel to modify the parameters of contact-point groups within the selected template. To display the panel, click an icon of a contact-point template on the
Contact Points Template Library panel.
The following settings are available:
- Name — Enter a name for the contact point group. This is the name displayed in the Project Tree if you load the template.
- Select Colour — Click the colour swatch to display the
Colour dialog and select the colour of the contact point group. If your template contains more than one contact point group, it is useful to have a different colour assigned to each one so that you can identify them on the part.
- Select Support Type — Click this button to display the
Support Type Selector panel, where you can choose the type of support you want to assign to the control point group. After you have selected a support type, its icon and name are displayed above the button.
- Limit region — Select this option to display the maximum and minimum height boxes, which enable you to specify between which percentages of the part's height the contact point group applies to.
- Maximum height — Enter a value for the maximum percentage of the part's height that the contact point group applies to.
- Minimum height — Enter a value for the minimum percentage of the part's height that the contact point group applies to.
- Delete Group — Click to delete the contact group from the template.
- Add Group — Click to add a new contact group to the template.
