Attach Point
Axis Orientation RGB - XYZ
Attach Point, only shown
when selected. (new in v3.9.0)
Every component is attached to (or placed in) the model by locating its attach point and positioning the
component relative to that point

Attach to Parent (Comp)
Attachment indicated by
‘^’ in browser
Attachment translates/rotates the attach coordinate system
(None means attach to
global coordinate system)
‘Comp’ attaches to parent’s origin

Attach to Parent (UW)
U,W coordinates run [0,1] along surface ‘UW’ attaches
to parent’s surface

Rel vs. Abs Attached components always
move when their parent moves.
‘Rel’ sets the position/rotation relative to the attach point.
‘Abs’ sets the position/rotation
in global coordinates.
When ‘Rel’ is selected, changing attachment moves component.
When ‘Abs’ is selected, component stationary as attachment changes
(sometimes confusing).
Changing between ‘Abs’ and ‘Rel’ can be very powerful.

‘Blank’ components are a way to insert a new coordinate system.
Useful for positioning,
mass properties, and grouping.

Hinge (and/or Slider) (new v3.9.0)
‘Hinge’ components are a way to add simple motion to a model.
Children of ‘Hinge’
components are forced attached.
Attach Point only shown
when selected.
Hinge Fixed Side shown as
feature line or when selected
Hinge Motion Side shown as
feature line or when selected
Forced attachment indicated by

Hinge Motion Control
Activate/Deactivate motion and limits
Set limits to current position
Set slider range to limits

Hinge Orientation
Orient using XForm
Orient using a vector specified in this GUI
Six ways to specify vector
3D Vector To 3D Point
To Point on Surface Along Surface U-Direction Along Surface W-Direction
Normal to Surface
Reference vector sets orientation

Symmetry Components can be symmetric about any plane (XY, XZ, YZ)
or axis (X, Y, Z) of any ancestor
attach point or object.
Global origin is 0
Ancestors numbered by generation

SubSurfaces
Subsurfaces are rectangles, ellipses, or lines
defined in (U, W) coords on a surface.
They can represent
are honored by CompGeom,
CFDMesh, and DegenGeom.
They can be used to model
inlet/outlet BC’s, control surfaces,
material properties, etc.
