Prompts you in the command bar:
Select component instances or [Change target 3d solids]: (Select a component.)
Select target 3D solids or [Append/cleaR/Select all affected 3d solids] <Select all affected 3d solids>: (Select target solids, choose an option, or press Enter.)
Select additional target 3D solids or [Change/cleaR/Select all affected 3d solids] <Select all affected 3d solids>: (Select another target solids, choose an option, or press Enter.)
Command Options
| Change target 3d solids Change |
Allows you to choose the new set of target solids. Component-based features will be removed and new ones will be created for selected solids. |
| Append | Allows you to add new solids to set of target solids. Component-based features will be updated and new ones will be created for the selected solids. |
| cleaR | Allows you to remove the existed component-based features and their geometry (see BmUnlink). |
| Select all affected 3d solids | This mode is similar to 'Change target 3d solids' but solids are chosen automatically. A solid will be chosen if any solids from BC_SUBTRACT layer intersects it or if any other solid from the BC_UNITE layer touches or intersects it. |
