Summary
Assign a Curve Library to a Constraint Path in Assembly Unit Mode.
Assign a Curve Library to a layout in Base Mode.
How to Run
[Assembly Unit Mode]
Ribbon Menu > [Assembly Unit] Tab > [Assign Library] Group > Curve
[Base Mode]
Ribbon Menu > [Base] Tab > [Library] Group > Curve > Assign
Explanation
Assign a Curve Library in Assembly Unit mode.
Assign a Curve Library to a Constraint Path in Assembly Unit mode.
[Select Curve Library]
Select the Curve Library to assign.[Constraint Space]
Select the Constraint Space where the Curve Library will be placed.[Constraint Path]
Select the Constraint Space where the Curve Library will be placed.[Alignment]
Set the direction to assign of Curve Library.From Start : Assign the Constraint Path start point to the end point.
From End : Assign the Constraint Path end point to the start point.
[Alignment] - Sub Constraint Path
Additional Align Type can be set when assigned to Sub Constraint Path
Align Type : Set the constraint method of the cross section that creates the shape when the library is assigned to the parent mode
Unconstrained : The cross section is unconstrained and placed on the Normal Plane of the path.
Tangential : The cross section is placed perpendicular to the assigned path, and the rotation within the cross section is constrained in the Global-Z axis direction.
Parallel : The cross section is constrained in the direction of the Global-Z axis.
[Rotation]
Set the angle of rotation and how the rotation will be applied when rotating the Curve Library.
Using the Curve Library with the above shape as an example,
Offset Only : The rotation of the Curve Library in Direction 2 is fixed, and only the rotation of the entire layout in Direction 1 occurs.
Objects Only : The rotation of the entire layout in Direction 1 is fixed, and only the rotation of the Curve Library in Direction 2 occurs.
All : Both rotations of the entire layout in Direction 1 and of the Curve Library in Direction 2 occurs.
[Preview Level]
Set the style of the Preview that appears during the assignment process.
Reference - Preview Level
[Section Variation]
Set whether to apply the Superelevation when assigning the Curve Library to the Base Mode later through the Assembly Unit.Rigid : Superevelevation is not applied to the corresponding Curve Library.
Deformed : Apply Superelevation to the corresponding Curve Library.
[Reference Point]
This block appears when the Deformed option is set, setting the reference point for Horizontal Distance calculation used when applying Superelevation.If the Number of Ref. Point is set to 1, only a single Ref. Point can be entered, and that point becomes the reference point for the Horizontal Distance calculation.
If the Number of Ref. Point is set to 2, two Ref. Points can be entered. Superelevation is applied only outside of the two points, and the Horizontal Distance is calculated from each of the two points.
The Reference Point setting is used to set the Level section in some segments of the Path Linked Entity within the Curve Library, or used to apply Superelevation to only some segments. To set the Reference Point, the user needs to first set the Vertex Group in the User Section of the Curve Library.
Reference - Vertex Group
[Match between Guide Paths]
If turned on, the Guide Path created in the Curve Library can be connected to the Guide Path created in the current Assembly Unit.[Select Guide Path (Curve Library)]
Select a Guide Path to match the Guide Path in the Assembly Unit Mode. The Guide Path in the previously selected Curve Library is displayed in the list.[Select Guide Path (Assembly Unit)]
Select a Guide Path in the Assembly Unit Mode to match the Guide Path selected above.[Guide Path Table]
After selecting both Guide Paths in the Assembly Unit Mode and Curve Library, click the Add button to add it to the Table. The user can change the matching relationship by selecting the row and clicking the Modify button.
[Structure Matching]
Sets whether to match Curve Library Structure data to Assembly Unit Structure data.Off : Does not match Library Structure data.
On : Matches Library Structure data.
[Quantity based on Library]
Set whether or not to calculate the quantity of the Curve Library unit.Off : Quantity is not calculated in Library units.
On : Quantity is calculated in Library units.
Assign a Curve Library in Base mode.
Assign a Curve Library to a layout in Base mode.
Rather than assigning Point Library and Curve Library directly to Base mode, it is more recommended to assign them to Assembly Unit mode and then to Base mode along with other libraries.
[Select Curve Library]
Select the Curve Library to assign.[Define Path]
Select the path to assign the Curve Library.By Layout : Assign Curve Libvrary to layout. In this case, changing the layout will automatically reassign the Curve Library.
Single Segment : Select one segment. You can select only some segments from the entire layout. Assign the Curve Library according to the selected segment size.
Multiple Segments : Select multiple segments. You can select only some segments from the entire layout, but you can only select segments consecutively. Assign the Curve Library across the selected section.
Whole Layout : Select the entire layout and assign the Curve Library.
By Select : Assign the Curve Library to 1D Wire. In this case, there is no update relationship between 1D Wire and Curve Library.
[Alignment]
Set the direction to assign of Curve Library.Direction
From Start : Assign the Constraint Path start point to the end point.
From End : Assign the Constraint Path end point to the start point.
Align Type
Sets the orientation of the Constraint Plane.If Define Path is selected as By Layout.
Tangential / Parallel
If Define Path is selected as By Select
Tangential / Parallel / Sweep Lock
Align Type : Set the constraint method of the cross section that creates the shape when the library is assigned to the parent mode
Tangential : The cross section is placed perpendicular to the assigned path, and the rotation within the cross section is constrained in the Global-Z axis direction.
Parallel : The cross section is constrained in the direction of the Global-Z axis.
For the Sweep Lock option, see https://midasuser.atlassian.net/wiki/x/xwZuQ.
[Offset]
Distance (Path-Y) : Enter the offset distance in the Y-axis direction.
Distance (Path-Z) : Enter the offset distance in the Z-axis direction.
[Rotation]
Set the angle of rotation and how the rotation will be applied when rotating the Curve Library.
Using the Curve Library with the above shape as an example,
Offset Only : The rotation of the Curve Library in Direction 2 is fixed, and only the rotation of the entire layout in Direction 1 occurs.
Objects Only : The rotation of the entire layout in Direction 1 is fixed, and only the rotation of the Curve Library in Direction 2 occurs.
All : Both rotations of the entire layout in Direction 1 and of the Curve Library in Direction 2 occurs.
[Preview Level]
Set the style of the Preview that appears during the assignment process.
Reference - Preview Level
[Structure Matching]
Sets whether to match Curve Library Structure data to Assembly Unit Structure data.Off : Does not match Library Structure data.
On : Matches Library Structure data.
[Quantity based on Library]
Set whether or not to calculate the quantity of the Curve Library unit.Off : Quantity is not calculated in Library units.
On : Quantity is calculated in Library units.
