Sets parameters and rebounds or reconnects objects to a new boundary object.

Type

Reconnect

Restricts the command to replacing a standalone boundary resulting from a copy operation with a new object boundary. The replacement reconnects the bound plate or profile system to another system or a reference plane.

Rebound

Restricts the command to replacing a system or reference plane boundary with a new system or reference plane boundary.

Boundaries (Reconnect options)

Distance

Specifies the range distance used by the software to find existing boundaries, such as standalone planes, near the new boundary object.

New boundary filter

Specifies the object type, such as grids, seams, reference curves, plate systems, profile systems, or member systems, for the new boundary object.

Depending on the entities that you select in Candidates list for rebound, the object types that do not suit as boundaries for the selected entities are available for selection.

New boundary object

Specifies the new boundary object. You can select the object from either the Workspace Explorer or the graphic view, type the object name into the box, or select an object from the list, which shows the last ten selections you have made.

If you select Grids for New boundary filter, you can click browse Browse ... ICON to display the Select Frame dialog box, which shows all the coordinate systems in the model. You can select the appropriate reference plane for the new boundary. For example, if you select frame F5 from coordinate system Main_CS, the New boundary object displays as Main_CS:F5.

Boundaries (Rebound options)

Old boundary filter

Specifies the object type, such as Grids, Seams, Reference Curves, Plate Systems, Profile Systems, or Member Systems, for the old boundary object.

Old boundary object

Specifies the old boundary object. You can select the object from either the Workspace Explorer or the graphic view, type the object name into the box, or select an object from the list, which shows the last ten selections you have made.

If you select Grids for Old boundary filter, you can click browse Browse ... ICON to display the Select Frame dialog, which shows all the coordinate systems in the model. You can then select the appropriate reference plane for the old boundary. For example, if you select frame F5 from coordinate system Main_CS, the Old boundary object displays as Main_CS:F5.

Candidates

Scope filter

Defines a scope to further filter the candidates list.

Workspace

The software shows all the entities in the workspace that are bounded to the old boundary object.

System Folder

Displays the Select System dialog, where you select a system. The software shows all the entities in the selected system that are bounded to the old boundary object.

Select Filter

Displays the Select Filter dialog, where you select a catalog filter or create your own filter. The software shows all entities matching the filter criteria that are bounded to the old boundary object.

Entity filter

Specifies an object type, such as Plate Systems, Profile Systems, Seams, Reference Curves, or Bracket Systems, to further filter the candidates list. You can also select Select Filter to create an object filter.

Candidates list

After you click Apply, displays all entities that are bounded to the old boundary object and satisfy the filter criteria. The candidates highlight in the graphic view. To select a candidate for rebounding, select the check box next to the candidate.

You can examine a candidate before selecting it. Click the candidate in Candidates list, and it displays in the system highlight color in the graphic view.

Description

Displays the name of a candidate.

Status

Shows the state of a candidate. The status can be OK, Error, or To Do List.

Apply

Populates the Candidates list with objects meeting the filter criteria.

Select All

Selects all the candidates available in Candidates list.

Select None

Clears all selections made in Candidates list.
