Breaking Panels

Break Panel lets you break a panel into multiple panels.

  1. In the Plate box, select a panel.

    You can select only one panel at a time to break.

  2. In the Splitting Object box, select an object to split the panel.

    The splitting object can be a plane, a curve, a surface, or another panel. The splitting object must intersect the plate.

    Notes:
    • You can select multiple splitting objects.
    • You must not select a multi-domain result as a splitting element.
  3. Click OK.
    The panel is broken into multiple panels. You can edit the geometry and material orientation of these panels individually.

    Note: If the stiffeners are attached to the panel, they are also broken along with the panel.
