Modify Auto Contact Entities
Right-click on an item in the Auto Contact Browser.
A context menu displays which offers options for
modifying the surfaces and contact pairs.
The following options are available
from the Auto Contact Browser's context menu:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Rename | Rename an existing entry. |
| Delete | Delete items from the browser. |
| Swap Master-Slave | Switches the surfaces identified as master and slave.
When selected, you will see the surfaces flip from the
master/slave positions in the browser. Select multiple entities by using the Control and Shift keys when clicking on entities. |
| Swap CP-Tire | Changes the type of interface created. Because a surface interaction is required for Contact Pair but not for Tie, any surface interaction identified earlier will be lost upon a swamp from CP to TIE. If you switch back from TIE to CP, the surface interaction will not be retained. |
| Edit Faces | Opens the Elements Selection panel, from which you can select and deselect the elements to include on the face of the surface, and edit the faces of the surfaces. |
| Add by Adjacent | Adds adjacent elements to the selected surface. |
| Add by Face | Adds all elements to a selected surface, until the feature angle exceeds the value (the feature angle can by set by clicking the Options icon). |
| Accept All/None | Automatically accept or reject all items in the Auto Contact Browser. |
| Reverse | Reverses the current selections in the Accept column. |
| Expand All/Collapse | Expands or collapses folders in the Auto Contact Browser. |
