Display

By default, this option is selected.

From the Assignment combo list, select:

• Process Type: the symbol support is displayed according to the symbol code assigned to the reference fastener type. By default, if no symbol is assigned to reference fastener type, the symbol code value is (101)

  By default, this option is set to Process Type.

• Unspecified: the default symbol support is displayed. It can be modified through the Properties contextual command.
• Zone Count: the symbol is displayed according to symbol code assigned to the number of joined zones set in the Fst_Standard file. By default, if no symbol is assigned to the thickness count in standard, or if there is no imported standard, the symbol is:

  for 1 thicknesses (1)

  for 2 thicknesses (2T)

  for 3 thicknesses (3T)

  for 4 thicknesses (4T)

  for more than 4 thicknesses

  By default, the Symbol Support is assigned to Process Type.

  From the Line weight drop-down list, select a value from 1 to 3.

  Zone Count selected, Line weight = 1
  
  
  Zone Count selected, Line weight = 3
  
  

  By default, the value is set to 1.

  Once the symbol is associated with a specification, it can no longer be modified when editing the fastener properties, except for the Unspecified type.

By default, this option is selected.

From the Assignment combo list, select:

• Process Category: the color is displayed according to the color code assigned to the Fastener Process Category in the standard file. By default, if no color is assigned to the Process Category, the default color is:
  
  • Yellow for Welding
  • Cyan for Adhesive
  • Magenta for Sealant
  • Green for BiW Mechanical
  • White for Unspecified

  Here is an example for Welding:
  
  

• Unspecified: the color is white whatever the process category:
  
  

By default, the Symbol Color is assigned to Process Category.

Once the color is associated with a specification, it can not longer be modified when editing the fastener's properties, except for the Unspecified type.

From the Line weight drop-down list, select a value from 1 to 3.

By default, the value is set to 1.

By default, this option is selected.

From the Assignment combo list, select the fastener classification parameter:

• Robustness
• Regulation
• Finish

Note that:

• 1 is for assigning a mark
• 0 is for assigning no mark

This mark is customized through the Fst_Standard file in order to be representative of the a specific fastener classification value.

Here is an instance with "Robustness=Safety":

Therefore, if you assign the 1 mark code for the parameter and value (Robustness=Safety), you will get this Mark:

In this case all the fasteners with the same parameter and value will get the mark symbol.

From the Line weight drop-down list, select a value from 1 to 3.

By default, the value is set to 1.

Click K Axis Display Only to specify the visualization type of the fastener axis (K axis only or I, J, K axis).

By default, this option is selected.

• if selected, only the K axis is visualized on the fastener location:
  
  
• If not selected, a trihedron showing the fastener axis system (I, J, K) is visualized on the fastener location:
  
  

Here the fastener axis orientation is shown through the graphic properties of this fastener.

For detailed information on the display (show/no show) of the fastener parameters, refer to Editing the Fasteners Properties.
