If checked, the pocket length is measured along the sketch normal, otherwise along the custom direction. In case the pocket uses a Custom direction, it can be changed. If checked, the pocket direction will be shown. Custom direction The sketch is extruded along a direction that can be specified via vector values.When this is method selected, you can click on any edge in the 3D model and it becomes the direction vector for the extrusion. The sketch is extruded along an edge of the 3D model. If you have selected several sketches or faces to be extruded, the normal of the first one will be used. Face/Sketch normal The sketch or face is extruded along its normal.You can select the direction of the extrusion: Introduced in version 0.20 Direction/edge This option is only available when Type is either Through all, To first or Up to face. Offset from face at which the pocket will end. This option is only available when Type is either Dimension or Two dimensions. Multiple units can be used independently of the user's units preferences (m, cm, mm, nm, ft or ', in or "). The directions can be switched by ticking the Reversed option.ĭefines the length of the pocket. This allows to enter a second length in which the pocket should extend in the opposite direction (into the support). The pocket will extrude up to a face in the model that can be chosen by clicking on it. In other words, it will cut through all material until it reaches an empty space. The pocket will extrude up to the first face of the support in the extrusion direction. If you need deeper pockets, use the type Dimension. Note: For technical reasons, Through All is actually a 10 meter deep pocket. With the option Symmetric to plane the pad will cut through all material in both directions. The pocket will extrude through all objects in the extrusion direction.
With the option Symmetric to plane the pocket will extend half of the given length to either side of the plane. This can be changed by specifying another Direction introduced in version 0.20. Extrusions occur by default normal to the defining sketch plane. The default direction for extrusion is into the support, but it can be changed by ticking the Reversed option. Type offers five different ways of specifying the length to which the pocket will be extruded:Įnter a numeric value for the length of the pocket.
