Registering a slide core solid as a component

When you create a slide using only a workplane, you can use any solid as its core.

To do this you must register the solid as a component and then position it on the slide mechanism.

  1. Create a slide using a workplane only.
  2. Create a solid for the core.
  3. Make sure the name of the solid is of the form SW_COREn, where n is an integer.
  4. Make sure the first page of the Slide wizard is displayed. For further details, see Creating a core using the Slide Core wizard.
  5. Scroll down the page to the Slide Core Component Creation section.

  6. Select the name of the solid from the drop-down list.
  7. Click Register.
  8. You can now position the component.
    Note: For further details, see Repositioning a component in the Assembly Modelling section.
