When you create a new bulge angle by clicking Insert Bulge Angle, this field
displays the default bulge angle name, which is the previous name with its
sequence number incremented.
Cross Section view
Cross Section view displays an outline of the active cross section. In
Profile
view
on page 4697, the active cross section is shown in a bright red color. In
Cross Section view, you can edit cross sections to bulge the mesh.
NOTE It is possible to select multiple cross sections in Profile view using either a
rectangular selection region or Ctrl+click. This allows you to enter settings on the
Cross Sections panel on page 4700 for all selected cross sections at once. Only one
active cross section, however, can be viewed and edited in Cross Section view.
(Selected but inactive cross sections are shown in a dark red color in the Cross
Section and Profile views.)
These are the elements of the cross section display:
Gray square at center Represents the link at the center of the cross section.
Control points When unselected, are shown as small black crosses on the
control spline. When selected, they are shown as black squares with a white
center.
