HD61878: FTA (PART) / CONSTRUCTED GEOMETRY AXIS IS NOT PLACED CORRECTLY

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• FTA (Part) / CONSTRUCTED GEOMETRY AXIS IS
  NOT PLACED CORRECTLY
  .
  Scenario:
  1. Open provided CATPart
  2. Edit "Intersecting Axis.1" in FDT
  3. Uncheck and recheck the "axis" option
  Problem: The resulting constructed geometry for
  the intersection is unexpected.
  .
  EXPECTED RESULT: Axis should be positioned on
  the intersection edge of the selected two faces.
  .

  MODIFICATION:
  Text Added:
  .
  The following constructed geometry elements are
  available:
  Point from:
  Sphere: the sphere center
  Cone: the cone vertex
  Torus: the torus center
  Circle: the circle center
  Intersection of a plane and a line: the intersection
  must exist.
  .
  Axis from:
  Cylinder: the cylinder axis
  Cone, a torus or a revolution surface: the
  revolution axis
  Intersection of two planes: the intersection must
  exist.
  .
  Curve from:
  Electrical feature.
  .
  Plane from:
  Cone: from the cone vertex to the infinite
  Torus: the plane normal to its axis passing through
  its center
  .
  Angular plane from:
  One plane and one line: plane and line must be
  parallel.
  .
  Median plane from:
  Two planes: planes must be parallel.
  Passing plane from:
  Two planes: planes must be coplanar
  One plane and one line: line must be on the plane
  One plane and one point: point must be on the
  plane
  Two lines: lines must be parallel or intersecting
  One line and one point: point must not be on the
  line
  Three points.
  .
  Thread from:
  Part feature.
  .
  Circling cylinder from:
  Three lines (or axes) at least and passing through
  these ones: lines (or axes) must be parallel and a
  solution must exist.
  .
  Reference cylinder from:
  A line (or an axis) to define its reference cylinder
  axis, and passing through one or more lines (or
  axes) to define its radius: selected lines (or axes)
  must be parallel and a solution must exist.
  .
