Use this function to define the representation of freeform surfaces. You can, for instance, change surface parameters, such as colour, hatching, patterns etc., hide/show specific edges, define the accuracy of mesh representation or display the normal vectors of a freeform surface.

The functions largely correspond to the same-named 3-D functions.

Furthermore, you can access the functions for freeform surface representation by activating

 

Function

Description

Changes the colour of individual surfaces.

Clicking opens a pull-down menu with further surface colour functions.

Hatches surfaces of the active part.

Clicking opens a pull-down menu with further hatching functions.

Determines the mesh fineness of a surface via the number of lines in m-and n-direction.

Clicking opens a pull-down menu with further functions for mesh fineness specification.
