Extremum Polar lets you create an element of extremum radius or angle, on a planar contour.


Before you begin: Create a 3D shape containing a sketch or a curve and a point. Extremum Polar
  1. In the Contour box, select a connected planar sketch or curve on which the extremum element is to be created.
    Important: Non-connected elements are not allowed.
  2. In the Support box, select the supporting surface of the contour.


  3. In the Origin box, specify the axis origin.
  4. In the Reference direction box, define the direction to determine the axis system in which the extremum element is to be created.
