Summary

  • Generates an object bound by the Constraint Path.

  • The bound curve is identical to the geometric line of the Path Linked Entity, and the object length changes based on the path length.

 

How to Run

[Curve Library Mode]

  • Ribbon Menu > [Curve Library] Tab > [Expression Entity] Group > Path Linked > Create Plane Type

  • Ribbon Menu > [Curve Library] Tab > [Expression Entity] Group > Path Linked > Create Line Type

  • Ribbon Menu > [Assembly Unit] Tab > [Expression Entity] Group > Path Linked > Create Line Type

[Assembly Unit Mode]

  • Ribbon Menu > [Assembly Unit] Tab > [Expression Entity] Group > Path Linked > Create Plane Type

 

Explanation

Create Path Linked Entities

Create a member using the cross section of an existing User Section along the Constraint Path direction and bound it to the Path.

  • [Constraint Path]
    Path Select the path to which the Linked Entity is bound.

    • Default Constraint Path : Constrain the member to the Default Constraint Path, which is automatically generated when the library is created.

    • Main Constraint Path : Constrain the member to the Main Constraint Path that you added after creating the library.

  • [Tapered Section]
    Set whether to create a cross section of the Path Linked Entity.

  • [Material Type]
    Set the material type of the Path Linked Entity.

  • [Constraint Path]
    Set the path to which the Path Linked Entity is bounded.

    • Default Constraint Path : Constrain the member to the Default Constraint Path that is automatically genereted when creating a library.

    • Main Constraint Path : Constrain the member to the Main Constraint Path created after the library is created.

Reference -

  • [Select User Section]
    Set the User Section to use.

Based on the Material Type settings, the User Section corresponding material is populated in the list.

  • [Assign User Section]
    Place the User Section on the screen.

    • Complete the placement by clicking the Assign button.

    • Enter the coordinates of the origin point.

    • Enter a Vector value to consider rotation placement in the User Section

The User Section of the Path Linked Entity can be only placed on a plane in the normal direction from the start and end points of the constrained path.
