Automatically route on drop of
flanges/connectors |
Automatically creates a route
subassembly and starts a route when you drop a routing component
such as a flange, tube fitting, or electrical connector into an
assembly. |
Automatically route on drop of clips |
For flexible tubes and electrical
cables. When you drag a clip into a route, automatically generates a
spline from the current route end. |
Always
use default document template for routes |
When selected, the software
automatically uses the default template specified in the Routing Template field in Routing
File Locations. When cleared, you need to specify a template
whenever you create a route assembly. |
Automatically create sketch fillets |
Automatically adds fillets at
intersections as you sketch. The fillet radius is based on the
selected elbow part, bend radius, or maximum cable diameter. This
option applies only to 3D sketches that are used as paths of routing
assemblies. |
Automatically add dimensions to route stubs |
Dimensions the length of the stubs
that extend from connectors or fittings to ensure that these route
segments update correctly when you move the connectors or
fittings. |
Automatically zoom to fit after addition of route
components |
Automatically zooms to fit when
you add route components in Electrical, Piping, and Flexible Tubing.
The Zoom to Fit behavior for
route components is turned off when this option is cleared. |
Enable
route error checking |
In addition to standard error
checking, checks routes for the following errors and flags affected
items with in the
FeatureManager design tree and What’s
Wrong dialog box. In piping and
tubing routes:
- Missing elbows. Detects missing or
deleted fillets and arcs.
- Missing constraints. Detects missing or
deleted constraints at tees, crosses, etc.
- Misaligned reducers. Detects misaligned
route property values at reducers.
In electrical routes:
- Minimum bend radius violations.
|
Display error balloons |
(Available only when Enable route error checking is
selected.) Displays error messages where you can click How do I fix this? for detailed
suggestions for fixing the error. |
Create
route part for segments if the bend radius is less than the
minimum |
Creates a route part if the bend radius of the
cable, core, or wire is less than the minimum.
|
Create transparent coverings |
Creates transparent coverings for
wires and cables. |
Include coverings in the Bill of Materials |
Includes coverings in BOMs for
routing assemblies. |
Save
route assembly externally |
Saves the route assembly as an
external file. Clear to save the route as a virtual component,
instead. |
Save
route parts externally |
Saves routing components as an
external file. Clear to save components as a virtual component,
instead. |
Use
automatic naming for route parts |
When selected, the software
automatically assigns names for route parts. When cleared, you need
to enter a name whenever you create a route part or
assembly. |
Use
triad to position and orient components on
drop |
Displays the triad every time you
place a route component or part. |
Show
Drag Drop Component Graphics From Platform |
Generates a component preview
when you drag it from the 3DEXPERIENCE
platform. |
Component rotation increment (degrees) |
Specifies a value for the rotation
increment in degrees. You can rotate elbows, tees, and crosses
during placement by holding down Shift and pressing the left and right arrow keys.
|
Text
size for connection and route points |
Scales text for connection and
route points to a fraction of the document's note font. At the
bottom of the size range, the text disappears but you can still
select the points. |
