Preview Operation Result
In order to view the result without confirming the creation of an operation, there is an option in each operation creation command:
<F5> |
Preview |
This option is available only when all the necessary elements for creating an operation are specified. When this option is set, the body on which the operation is created will be displayed with the specified parameters. If you are satisfied with the result, you can complete the entry by clicking the icon . If the result is not satisfactory, then the view mode should be turned off by pressing the option again and the necessary parameters should be adjusted.
In the commands for creating and editing the modifier operations, there is an additional mode allowing a user to see the changes produced in the model by the current operation:
<Ctrl>+<F5> |
Preview Solid Changes |
In this mode, the parts of the volume which will be added to the source body are shown with a orange color, and the parts of the volume which will be removed from the source model are shown with a blue color.
Similar to the option for previewing, the option is available only when all necessary elements for creating operation have been specified.
