Enhancements for shells include a new Shell Manager user interface which allows you to define, edit, and organize multiple shell definitions more efficiently, and the ability to preview a shell's orientation before creating the mesh.
Contents
The Shell Manager improves the workflow for defining, editing and organizing multiple shell definitions of your part or assembly document. It allows for a better visualization and verification of shell properties according to type, thickness, orientation, or material.
You can flip the shell top and bottom faces and preview their locations with respect to the shell midsurface before creating the mesh.
