Finish Path

Displays the path in the active view and returns to the model with the place prismatic shape feature still enabled.

Cancel

Cancels the changes you made and returns you to the model.

Edit

Modifies and moves the existing path. You can select the segment, turn, or multiple segments to which to make modifications.

Create

Displays the Create Path ribbon to allow you to add segments to an existing path.

Origin

Defines the origin on the cross-section for prismatic shape construction.

Reference Point

Specifies that you are selecting the starting location of the move vector.

End Point

Specifies that you are selecting the ending location of the move vector.

Path Type

Specifies the type of line for the current segment in the path. To change the segment type, click a new type in the Line Type list.

Path Type Options

Line

Defines the line type for the segment to be a straight line.

Arc by 3 Points

Defines the line type for the segment to be an arc. To define the arc, you must click three points in the view.

No Line

Specifies that you do not want the current segment of the path to have a line associated with it.

Plane

Activates options for selecting a working plane for the path.

Working Plane Options

Plan Plane

Defines the work surface as the XY plane.

Elevation Plane: East-West

Defines the work surface as the XZ plane.

Section Plane: North-South

Defines the work surface as the YZ plane.

Plane by Turn

Defines the work surface as the plane defined by an existing turn. You select the turn to set the plane.

Plane by Three Points

Defines the work surface using three points that you define.

No Plane

Clears any work surfaces. The software does not project points that you place to any plane.

Delete CLASSIC ICON Delete Selected Items

Deletes the selected path segments.

Length Locked

Defines whether or not the length of the selected segment should remain constant while moving.

When locked , the software automatically modifies the turn points, along with the length and angle of adjacent segment, to remain connected to the moved segment. The length of the moved segment does not change.

When not locked , the software extends or shortens the associated segments to connect with the new position of the moved segment. The length of the moved segment can change.
