Profile view is a schematic profile of two links. The currently selected link is
on the left, and its child link is on the right. If the selected link is an end link,
the outline of the right half of the Profile view turns gray.
Cross sections are shown as vertical bars across the profile. The active cross
section is red. Unselected cross sections are white. Cross sections that are
selected but not active are dark red.
You can use a rectangular selection region or Ctrl+click to select multiple cross
sections. Although only one cross section at a time is active in Cross Section
view, you can use the
Cross Sections panel on page 4700 to change parameters
for multiple cross sections.
Profile view shows a profile of the bulges you create. As in Cross Section view,
the control spline is red and the deformation spline is green.
The profile is always a vertical profile of the Cross Section view. You can drag
the orientation bar in Cross Section view to change the angle of the profile.
To insert a new cross section, turn on Create CS Slice and then click
Profile view to set the cross section's location.
You can use the Draw tool in Profile view to change the control spline
by freehand drawing. Drawing updates the cross section shapes.
