Add Entity Size Filter
Used to simplify parametric solids by removing unwanted details based on predetermined sizes. Removing details deemed unnecessary to a design's location or connections such as small blends, holes, and planar facets has benefits:
You can access this tool from the following:
Note: The Add Entity Size Filter tool is not intended to work with B-Spline Surfaces. Also, parametric solids must be selected individually when using this tool. Fence contents and selection sets are not supported.
Note: This tool will remove the parametric features as per the set values, in the selected solid. To undo (delete) the action, modify settings, or diable this feature for a while, simply right-click the feature glyph for this tool appearing on selecting the affected solid and then select the options:
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Blends Radius | When on, all blends (fillets) sized less than or equal to the entered radius value are removed. |
Holes Diameter | When on, all round holes sized less than or equal to the entered diameter value are removed. |
Face Size | When on, all planar faces sized less than or equal to the entered value are removed. |
Variable Link | Let's you use an existing variable to set the input value, defined in the Variables dialog. |
