Basics
A visual tool to help Engineers communicate their designs
Sketch
Indicates a sketch is fully defined
Black
Where an Exploded View of the design is created.
Animation Workspace
Creates a three-dimensional figure out of a two- dimensional sketch
Extrude
prevents unwanted movement within a subassembly
rigid joint
A quickly accessible group of commands
Marking Menu
A Simple Base Sketch
Primitive
Required to create a Section View
Cutting Line
Takes a closed sketch profile and rotates it around an axis to create a three dimensional feature
Revolve
Identifies a component is in "read only" mode
link icon
Allows for a change in size as view zooms in and out
adaptive grids
Examples include center diameter, 2-point, and 3-tangent.
circle commands
Examples include Counterbore, Simple, and Countersink
Hole Types
Extending a closed profile along a path
Sweep
Function that allows other components to move relative to a component
Grounding
easily adjustable values to easily scale drawings
parameters
A sketch element that creates fluid organic curves between points
Spline
Includes a front view, top view, side view and isometric view
Multiview Drawing
Examples include Constant Radius, Chord Length, and Variable Radius
Fillets
Specifies a specific range of motion for components
joint limit
Where you find your edit history
Timeline
The graphical display of the curvature along a spline.
Curvature Comb
Identified by selecting two parallel lines
centerline
Removes material from multiple faces in the model
Shell
Examples include dots, triangles, plus signs, and squares
snap shapes
