Panels are stored in the same hierarchy as sections. Panels can in the model represent different things: Walls, Grating….. Draw a polygon on the blackboard, explain this is just a loop then add thickness to create a panel and demonstrate the different justifications. Point out that if a panel is created anti-clockwise then all that will happen is a reversal of the justification. If you make a mistake, when creating the panel, the geometry might disappear from the screen. Call up the panel editor and correct it. Here we define the general parameters of our new panel. Name, thickness and justification. Show the different justification on the blackboard. Also we define the panel vertices using the icons under create methods. From left to right these are; Standard cursor picking options Point at intersection of plines and an existing panel. Vertices to follow shape of existing panel Explicit coordinates Distance and direction construct fillet with defined radius and tangential to two lines construct fillet arc by picking three points Construct fillet arc by specifying radius, picking two points on the fillet and a final control point to define position. The highlighted vertex in the list is the one that is being adjusted its properties are shown in the grey fields above, and it is here that you can alter the values. Talk about the following (Demo if you can): Selecting vertex (graphically and in the text gadget) Editable field: X, Y, Radius Edit Cut/Replace Create Modify DragEdge Explain that this aid can be called anytime with any application. Mention where the icon is. Return to the exercise 5 on 7 Emphasise that these joints are very different from the section to section joints. They do not involve nodes, and are based on a purely logical connection between panel vertices and an owning element. Go though the options on the panel connection menu. Now try exercise 6 on 15 When talking about negative extrusions remember to mention, Negative extrusions are a
