The support has the following three occurrence properties that are related to hole aspect:
-
Hole Aspect Direction - Used to change the direction of the hole aspect.
-
Hole Aspect Thickness - Used to change the thickness of the hole aspect.
-
Hole Aspect Gap - Used to change the gap between hole aspect and pipe or pipe collection.
The default behavior of a support is to connect to the last geometry port of a structure. When you perform a cut operation on a structure, such as placing an opening or a hole, the software connects the support to the port at the cut as shown in the following graphic:
To enable a support to connect to the structure port before cut, implement SupportingPortType property in Custom Support Definition (CSD) or override SupportivePortType property in Assembly Information Rule (AIR) corresponding to the Smart 3D version. For more information on Hole Management, see the Hole Management User's Guide.
By default, all the supports connect to the last port of a structure. The corresponding AIR or CSD must implement the SupportingPortType property.
For support assemblies that contain hole aspect support components, add a condition
as specified in the AIR/CSD.
Visual Basic 6.0 Implementation
Ensure that the Visual Basic 6.0 or C++ support AIR implements IJHgrSupportingPortSelection interface. The IJHgrSupportingPortSelection interface has a property that returns HngSupSupportingPortSecection and is of type enum. The HngSupSupportingPortSecection takes the following two values:
-
LastPort = 0
-
PortBeforeCut = 1
If a support implements the AIR IJHgrSupportingPortSelection interface to connect to a structure port before cut, ensure that the interface returns PortBeforeCut value.
Private Property Get IJHgrSupportingPortSelection_SupportingPortType() As HNGSUPSupportServices.HngSupSupportingPortSelection
IJHgrSupportingPortSelection_SupportingPortType = PortBeforeCut
End Property
.NET Implementation
The .NET CSD must override SupportivePortType property. SupportivePortType returns portBeforeCut value.
public override SupportingPortSelectionType SupportingPortType
{
get { return SupportingPortSelectionType.PortBeforeCut; }
}
