HD79220: GSD : "FILL" WHICH IS NOT PLANAR IS CREATED ALTHOUGH "PLANAR BO UNDARY ONLY" IS SET.

APAR status

• Closed as user error.

Error description

• GSD : "Fill" which is not planar is created
  although "Planar Boundary Only" is set.
  1) Start CATIA  V5R18
  2) Open the CATPart attached to the PMR
  (Workbench : "Generative Shape Design")
  3) Create the "Fill".
  3.1) Select "Line.1" as "Boundary" from the tree.
  3.2) Activate "Planar Boundary Only" check box.
  ==>>This is key point!!
  3.3) Select "Line.2", "Line.3", "Line.4"
  as "Boundary" from the tree.
  3.4) Click OK
  >>"Fill.1" is created.
  4) Change the "Work Object" into "Join.1".
  5) Click "Join.1" and select "Define In Work
  Object" from the context menu.
  6) Create the "Fill".
  6.1) Click "Fill" icon.
  6.2) Select "Join.1" as "Boundary" from the tree.
  6.3) Activate "Planar Boundary Only" check box.
  6.4) Click OK
  >>"Fill.2" is created.
  7) Edit "Line.3".
  7.1) Double click "Line.3" from the tree.
  >>"Line Definition" dialog box is displayed.
  7.2) Change the "Point 2:" as shown the pdf
  attached to the PMR.
  The change is to get a none planar surface.
  >>"Update Error" window is displayed.
  7.3) Click OK
  7.4) Click OK
  >>"Update Diagnosis: Part1" window is displayed
  and
  "Fill.2" fall in Error.
  < Result >
  "Fill.1" is created although "Planar Boundary Only"
  is active.
  >>>This is problem.
  < Expected Result >
  "Fill.1" which is not planar should not be created
  when
  "Planar Boundary Only" is active.
  (In the case of scenario, "Fill.1" as well as "Fill.2"
  should Fall
  in Error.)
  The Fill construction with lines is done correctly with
  a planar option set. If a line is change to get a
  none planar surface, CATIA do not recognize the
  wrong surface state (none planar) and the fill is
  done.

Comments

• Incident Diagnosis
  In case of many boundaries input in the
  Fill
  command, the option is not valid and not planar
  Fill
  surface created is not detected.
  Correct Application
  The planar boundary option works only for a single
  input
  boundary. This is documented for the Fill
  functionnality: "You
  can check Planar Boundary
  Only to fill only planar boundaries,
  when the
  boundary is defined by one curve on one surface.
