Solid Extension 

Access: Open this function from one of the following locations:

  • Select Electrode > Geometry > Solid Extension from the menu bar.

  • Select Solid Extension from the Electrode Guide.

Create a solid extension on top of the solid body (the solid body created by the Burn Body function).

The Burn Body and Solid Extension functions enable you to create a body and extend it all the way up to the electrode base. Together, these functions enable you to create electrodes using solid tools.

The Solid Extension function is very similar to the Electrode Extensions function.

Note: This function is only available when an electrode is active in an assembly environment.
