This allows the user to create a fixture using basic geometry. Fixtures are a critical part of the modeling process and play a significant role when assembling parts and sub-assemblies.

 

Procedure:

•Create the part as described in Create Parts

•Create the appropriate geometry as described in: Create Coordinate Points, Create Lines, Create Circles  etc.

•Put a check mark in the Fixture box.  By designating the part as a fixture, the lines are dashed and have a default color set in the Tree Window Color menu. This Part box will not move during the assembly process unless it is specifically chosen for the move.

•Click the OK button.
