Create Feature - Marking

Purpose:

To create one or more markings in a number of shell profiles.

Prerequisites:

A shell profile (and thus at least one shell stiffener) must exist.

Instructions:

• In create mode, you must indicate one or more shell profiles in which to create the markings, and then give a marking definition. If any shell profiles are already selected, they will be used as input to this function.

You must enter the position of the marking or markings in the Positions field. The Profile Height and Symmetric check boxes together with Direction and Inclination Angle may be used to set the appearance of the markings. A text may also be entered in the Marking Text field.

• In modify mode, you may change the marking definition. The modification will only affect the markings in the selected shell profile. If markings have been created in several profiles at once, the marking definitions in the different profiles must be changed one at a time.

Options:

Not available.

Result:

• In create mode, markings will be created in the selected shell profiles. The Select Submenu - Apply function must be used to commit the addition of markings to the shell profile.

• In modify mode, the shell profile will be updated with the new marking definition. To make changes permanent, Apply must be used. Using the Select Submenu - Deactivate function before the changes have been applied will undo them.
