-
Select a Curvilinear Pattern or Linear
Pattern or Selection Pattern in the pattern list
box.
-
To import a pattern table, click Import Table
in the Table Driven section.
- Optional:
To search already imported tables, enter the "vpmdoc" criteria in the
Search box.
- Select an Excel file.
After the selection of the Excel table, the table name is visible in the box and two more commands appear next it: Export Table and Edit Table . The curvilinear patterns can accept three parameters for the positioning of axes along the curve: - the distance relative to curve start point
- its lateral offset
- its vertical offset or translation
-
For linear and curvilinear patterns, in the 3D area,
select
- a 3D curve, a start point (on the curve), its orientation, the adequate
measurement method, etc. for a curvilinear pattern. The selected point is chosen as the
pattern start point and, axis systems are created.
- an axis system for a linear pattern.
-
To create the selection pattern into a table-driven table, click .
This icon is only visible in the context of the selection pattern creation. It is
possible to export a pattern table even if no table has already been imported and if the
selection pattern is not defined by a table.
- To edit directly the imported design table inside the 3DEXPERIENCE, click Edit Table .
You can edit the pattern table. - To save the table as an external file in the database, click Export Table .
