This document describes the types of rules that can be applied to models that have advanced feature parameters captured.
Driving advanced feature dimensions increases model generation time. Where possible capture feature dimensions (distances, numbers and angles) as dimensions rather than an advanced feature parameter.
During model generation captured dimensions are driven before captured advanced feature parameters. If the advanced feature parameter has also been captured as a dimension the value being driven into the advanced feature parameter will override the captured dimension.
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Distance | Distance value | Sets the distance mate between 2 different components
(Units are the same as those set within the SOLIDWORKS model settings) |
Flip Dimension | True/False | Sets whether to move entities to opposite sides of the dimension of this distance mate |
Mate Alignment | One of the following values:
0 = Aligned 1 = Anti Aligned 2 = Closest | Sets the alignment of this distance mate |
