Defines face plates, which are similar to Smart 3D edge reinforcements and typically use flat bar profile cross-sections. Face plates are created in the same way as the parent plate, as defined for Instance on the panel. Smart 3D transforms local coordinates into global coordinates. Smart 3D imports a face plate as ImpStiffenerType, with profile type of ImpFacePlate.

BendType
Specifies the curvature of part. This field is optional.
<Material>
Specifies a material grade as defined in reference data. For more information, see <Material> in Reference Data XML Tags.
<BarShape>
Defines the profile cross-section for the group.
BarSectionId
Specifies a profile cross-section as defined in the reference data. For more information, see <BarSection> in Reference Data XML Tags.
BarType
Defines a unique identifier for the profile cross-section. Smart 3D maps BarType to the Stiffener Bar Type property.
<Parameters>
Defines dimension parameters for the profile cross-section.
<Crosssection>
Defines the height of the profile cross-section.
<Faceplate>
Contains all definitions for a single face plate.
<Assembly>
Defines assembly information for the part. This attribute is optional.
<ModelRef>
Identifies an object.
CompId
Defines a unique numeric identifier for the object within the defined value of CompType.
ObjType
Defines an object type, such as PlanePanel, CurvedPanel, or ShellCurve.
ObjId
Defines a unique name for an object. Smart 3D maps ObjId to the Node Type property and uses it to track existing objects during re-import to determine if an object is new.
CompType
Defines the type of feature.
<Trace>
Defines the length and end points of the face plate. Smart 3D retrieves the cross-section from the catalog.
StartPoint2d
Defines the starting node point coordinates in the 2D U-V plane.
<Segment2d>
Specifies a segment of the contour in the 2D U-V plane. The segment can be a straight line or an arc.
Amplitude2d
Defines the distance of the midpoint of a segment from a line drawn between the node points. The U and V values are 0 for a straight line.
Node2d
Defines the ending node point coordinates of a contour segment in the 2D U-V plane.
<Offset>
Specifies the offset of the face plate from the plate edge.
<Inclination>
Defines the orientation angle of the face plate.
<Vector3D>
Defines the inclination vectors at a node point on <Trace>. If two values of <Vector3D> are provided for <Inclination>, then the orientation angles are applied at the pillar ends. If more than two values of <Vector3D> are provided, then the orientation angles are applied at each node of the trace.
U
Defines a value along the U-axis of the local coordinate system.
V
Defines a value along the V-axis of the local coordinate system.
W
Defines a value along the W-axis of the local coordinate system.
<Web>
Defines the web of the face plate cross-section.
