Creating Scallops on Panels and Plates

Scallop on Panel and Plate lets you create scallops on the corners or at the edge of panels and plates.

Scallops are the openings created at intersections for draining water and venting out air.

  1. In the Applied on box, select a panel or a plate on which scallops are to be created.

    You can select multiple panels and plates.

    The possible corners on which the scallops can be created, are listed in the dialog box. The corners are highlighted in the 3D area. The Type column lists the type of positioning strategy.
  2. Select the required rows and click Create Scallop .
  3. In the Scallop Definition dialog box, define the scallop parameters.
    1. From the Category list, select the category for scallop.
    2. Under Position Strategy, select two limits.

      By default, the scallop positioning type is Limit/Limit. If you do not select any row, the scallop is created with the Limit/Offset positioning strategy.

    3. Select the contour type and contour name in the respective lists.

      Note: The snipe and clearance types are available only for the Limit/Limit position strategy.

      The Parameters area displays the contour parameters and a bitmap image of the contour.
    4. Click Apply to apply the inputs.
    5. Click OK to save the applied inputs.
