Using start and end markers

When creating composite curves, start and end markers enable you to restrict the region in which you select items. They also enable you to select a portion of length of a single item. When you add the markers, begin selecting the composite curve close to the start marker.

To add a start marker:

  1. From the Create Composite Curve toolbar, select the Start marker button.
  2. Input a position to add the start marker. A start marker is added to your model. This is only a visual aid which is displayed whilst the Create Composite Curve toolbar is displayed.

To add an end marker:

  1. From the Create Composite Curve toolbar, select the End marker button.
  2. Input a position to add the end marker. An end marker is added to your model. This is only a visual aid which is displayed whilst the Create Composite Curve toolbar is displayed.

To remove a marker:

  1. From the Create Composite Curve toolbar, select the button of the marker you want to remove, that is, either a Start or End marker.
  2. Click on the marker you want to remove.

To move a marker:

  1. From the Create Composite Curve toolbar, select the button of the marker you want to move.
  2. Input the new position.

    You may have only one marker of each type displayed at any one time.
