Normally, two curves will result from an intersected panel, one from each side. Hull Modelling will automatically select the proper one.
Section curves from panel used as a boundary:

In some cases, it might be convenient, explicitly to select the curve to be used. This is done by defining the side as one of the main directions of the ship. |
|
|
The resulting contours will always be extended outside the edges of the intersected panel to make certain that adjoining boundaries intersect even when minor gaps should occur. The shape of this extension may vary, for example, as controlled by the default parameters CHAMFER_ADJUST and REDUCE_HOOKS. |
|
|
However, when CORR is used, the resulting contour(s) will always be straight, "unrestricted" lines. The position of the lines is calculated from the thickest plate (on the side of the panel from which the line is displaced). |
