Tangent relationship command bar

Connected Faces

Specifies how the faces connected to the selection adapt during the modification.

• Extend/Trim

  Modifies the model by trimming and extending adjacent faces.

• Tip

  Modifies the model by allowing the current orientation of connected faces to change. In some situations, this can cause the current orientation of connected faces to tip or change their angle.

Clash

Specifies how the selected seed faces interact with the model during modification.

• Select set override

  Gives priority to selected and other moving faces over non moving faces.

• Model override

  Gives priority to non moving faces.

Single/All

Controls how alignment is performed when multiple elements are in the select set. When multiple elements are in the select set, the first element you select is considered the seed element. The seed element is displayed in a different color than the remaining elements in the select set.

• Single

  Specifies that the existing spatial relationship between the seed element (A) and the remaining elements in the select set is not changed by the relate operation. When the Single option is set, the seed element (A) is moved to honor the relationship you specified with respect to the target face (B). The remaining elements in the select set are also moved, but their current spatial relationship to the seed element is maintained. In this example, the coincident relationship was applied.

  

• All

  Specifies that the spatial relationship between the seed element (A) and the remaining elements in the select set can be changed by the relate operation. When the Multiple option is set, all the elements in the set are moved such that they honor the relationship you specified with respect to the target element (B). In this example, the coplanar relationship was applied, and all faces in the select set were moved such that they are coplanar to the target face (B).

  

Persist

Specifies that the applied relationship is maintained if the model is modified later. When the Persist option is set, the relationship is applied, and a relationship entry is added to the Relationships collector in PathFinder. To modify the position of the faces independently later, you can delete the relationship entry from PathFinder.

When the Persist option is cleared, the relationship is applied, but the faces are free to move later, and no relationship is added to PathFinder.

You can also delete a persisted relationship. See Using the Advanced Design Intent panel for more information.

Accept

Accepts the operation.
