Description

The Curves BlendSolid tool creates a solid between two edges with some continuity with their support shapes.

Usage

1. Select two faces of different solids.
2. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
   • Press the BlendSolid button.
   • Select the Surfaces → BlendSolid option from the menu.
3. A Blend_Solid object is created.
4. Optionally edit the values in the Property editor to choose a different auto scale method and adjust the related properties (see Properties below).

Properties

See also: Property editor.

A Blend_Solid object is derived from a Part Feature object and inherits all its properties. It also has the following additional properties:

Data

Base

• DataSources (LinkSubList): Faces to join.

Continuity

• DataContinuity1 (Integer): Continuity order G... with shape 1.
• DataContinuity2 (Integer): Continuity order G... with shape 2.

Scale

• DataAuto Scale (Enumeration): Compute scale values to get regular poles, or minimal curvature.
  • RegularPoles (default): ...
  • MinimizeCurvature: ...
  • Manual: ...
• DataScale1 (FloatList): Scale values along face 1.
• DataScale2 (FloatList): Scale values along face 2.
• DataScale Samples (Integer): Number of samples for auto scaling.

Settings

• DataFuse (Bool): Fuse the 3 solids together.
• DataSamples (Integer): Number of samples to generate each surface.

Status

• DataShape Type (String): Status of the created shape.
