Mesh Tools-Fix Aspect Ratio tool

In the Input Parameters section of the dialog, enter the maximum aspect ratio that you would like to achieve in the mesh.

Create as Allows you to simultaneously create a modeling entity and assign properties to it. For example
  • You can create a curve and assign runner properties to it.
  • You can create a region and assign part surface properties to it.

In some cases you have the option to Create as modeling entity. No properties will be assigned. This option may be appropriate if, for example, you are creating curves to construct a region. You must assign properties to the region, but you don't need to assign properties to the curves.

Tip: To change the properties of an entity, click Change
