    BiW Welding SpotPoint

    We want to link two surfaces by a spotweld. But our reference point that we select in the BiW Welding SpotPoint definition box is located between the two surfaces. Catia then tells us that we can compute the normal vector on the closest surface. Unfortunately, when we export a .txt file...

    Too many surfaces!!!

    Thanks to both of you for your hints. I still have one question left though: what is the best way to isolate a surface. I've used "Create Datum" and then did a healing on my surface. It gave me an independant surface. Is there a way isolate an existing geometry without creating a new one...

    Too many surfaces!!!

    Hi everybody, I've been working for some time with surfaces by joining, filleting and healing them. I've recently noticed that when a command is applied to a surface, it is sent in no-show and the new surface takes the name of the last operation. After over 40 fillets (it's a big surface), the...
