Example of Flex Stretching

Initial part

Stretching using the default trim plane locations (extents of the part)

Stretching this way causes both ends to stretch symmetrically.

Repositioning the trim planes or triad allows you to select local regions of the model to stretch.

To move the trim planes, move the pointer over a trim plane to display the pointer, then drag the plane. You can also set the Stretch distance in the PropertyManager.

 

Result of stretching of a local region confined by the trim planes.
