Sets options for adding designed solids to your model. This ribbon displays automatically after you select the Place Designed Solid Command Place Designed Solid ICON, or when you select an existing designed solid.

Designed Solid Properties

Opens the Solid Properties Dialog so you can view and edit the occurrence properties and reviews the static properties of an existing designed solid. Properties can be edited only after the object is placed in the model.

Relationship List

Lists all relationships for the selected designed solid and provides an option for creating a new relationship if the designed solid is not already fully constrained. A designed solid part is fully constrained when it has sufficient defined relationships to prevent movement or rotation of the part along all three coordinate axes.

Positioning Relationships

Displays the available options for types of Positioning Relationships. Some options may not be available for all designed solid types.

Delete Relationship

Removes the selected relationship from the designed solid in the model and in the database. Using the Relationships list box, select a previously-existing relationship for the designed solid, and click Delete Relationship. You can use this command only when modifying existing designed solids.

Shape Reference

Prompts you for the reference on the designed solid that will be affected by the positioning relationship. In all cases, the part that you select in this step moves to create the relationship, and the part chosen in the Second Part Reference step remains fixed.

Second Part Reference

Prompts you for the reference on the designed solid or reference element already in the model that will be affected by the positioning relationship. After you select the reference, the software repositions the first shape part chosen with respect to the second part selected in the definition of the relationship.

Offset

Defines the offset distance for a mate or align relationship. Offsets are disabled when establishing a connect relationship. You can adjust this value after initial designed solid placement, if needed.

Name

Displays the designed solid name, as dictated by your predefined name rules, and accepts changes to that name.

Equipment

Displays the name of the parent designed solid. This field only displays when you select a shape that comprises the designed solid.

SP3D Equip Operators List ICON Operators List

Activates the Order Shapes Dialog, which you can use to control the order in which the software processes the shapes that comprise the designed solid. Controlling the order in which the shapes are processed can be important when some shapes that remove material from the designed solid overlap with other shapes that add material to the designed solid.
