Moving Features from a Solid Functional Set to Another One

You can move features from one solid functional set to another one by using Change Functional Set contextual command.


Before you begin: Open a representation containing a functional set including two features at least.

Reordering Features within a Solid Functional Set or a Functional Set
  1. From the specification tree, multi-select the functional features you want to move to a functional set belonging to a distinct solid functional set.

    In our example below, multi-select Shellable Prism.5, Cut.2 which belong to Solid Functional Set.1, then Shellable Prism.4 which belongs to Solid Functional Set.5.



  2. Right-click and select Selected object > Change Functional Set.

    Change Functional Set applies to all features contained in a solid functional set or a functional set. However, when multi-selecting features, keep in mind that your selection must include a consistent group of features: multi-selecting modifiers and not the features they modify leads to non-satisfactory results. Likewise, multi-selecting features modified by modifiers and not their modifiers themselves produces incorrect results. In these cases, the application issues a warning message informing you that the move operation can be done partially only.

  3. Select Functional Set.7 as the new location for the selected features.

    Functional Set.7 now contains the three functional features. In our example, the geometry is not affected by the move operation because the selection is a consistent one.
