Description: 10 minutes
The Adjust blend option has been enhanced in the Taper command.
With OSDM 2004, you could switch the blend adjustment on or off. Now, there are three options to choose from.
To adjust a blend, select an option from the Adj Blends menu:
No - No adjustment is made. (Same as Off in OSDM 2004)
Automatic - The system defines the blend value. (Same as On in OSDM 2004)
Min Face Thickness - The user defines a minimal face thickness value for the faces adjacent to the blend. The system will choose a new blend radius that will maintain this minimal face thickness.
The Minimal Face Thickness option is new. The value for minimal face thickness has to be greater than a minimal value. The limit is 100 * resolution of the body, but not smaller then 0,01.
Adjust Blend is not available in the Advanced Taper command.

The No option is the same as Off in the last release.

Because No was selected, an error message is generated.

The Automatic option is the same as On in the last release. The system tapers the faces and automatically calculates a new blend. The blend reduction is shown with a label.

With the Min Face option, specify a minimal face thickness value for the faces adjacent to the blend.
For more information, see the topic Taper a face or recognized feature (boss or pocket) in the OSDM help set.
