If automatic trace bevel has been defined, the default position of the reference point of a profile is according to the figure below, that means, there is no space between the abutting plane/panel and the profile.

However, if the environment variable SBH_CHECK_PROF_TRACE has been set to an arbitrary value and the profile web is a candidate for conversion to a plate part (via the file assigned to SBH_PROF_TO_PLDB), the reference point of a profile is according to the figure below, that means, the mould side of the profile is located in the abutting plate surface.

If not an automatic trace bevel, then check the Optional Positions below.
