Creating Seams

Seam Panel lets you seam a panel, that is divide a panel into several plates, to apply different material and thickness to each plate.

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

    You can select any number of splitting objects. The splitting object can be a plane, a curve, a surface, or another panel. The splitting object must intersect the plate.

  3. Optional: Click to create a sketch as the splitting object.

    If the panel is non-planar, the sketch is projected on the panel.

  4. Click OK.
    A seam is created on the panel. The panel is divided into plates. The largest plate after seam operation replaces the original plate in the plate set and inherits all its properties.
