To Start a Shape Generator Study

Use one of two ways to start a Shape Generator Study.

You can access Shape Generator directly as part of your normal modeling workflow or as part of your Stress Analysis workflow.

Directly start a Shape Generator Study:

1. Open the part file of interest.

2. On the ribbon 3D Model tab Explore panel, click Shape Generator.

   The ribbon displays the tools for generating a shape and a new Shape Generator Study is created.

To start a Shape Generator Study from within the Stress Analysis environment:

1. Open the part file of interest.

2. On the ribbon 3D Model tab Simulation panel, click Stress Analysis. The Stress Analysis environment can also be accessed from the Environments tab.

3. On the Analysis tab Manage panel, click Create Study.

4. In the Create New Study dialog, select Shape Generator and click OK.
