Selecting Art (Emboss) Models

Introduction

The emboss model that you create using BobART is a mesh (stl) model. You can select the emboss model for workpiece assignment, Mill 3 Axis features, Mill 4 Axis Rotary features, and gouge checking for Mill Multiaxis features, but it is handled differently than other geometry selection as explained in this topic.

 

Important: The Select Art Model check box only displays in the Selection Manager when an emboss model exists in the file. When no emboss model exists, this option does not display. When you select the check box, the software automatically selects the emboss model (you don't have to click the model itself.)

Select Art Model

The Select Art Model check box displays in the Selection Manager for Mill 3 Axis features, Mill 4 Axis Rotary Features, Workpiece Assignment, and Mill Multiaxis Gouge Checking. You use this option to assign the emboss (art) model to any of these features.

Select Art Model

When you click the Select Art Model check box, the software automatically selects the existing emboss model in the graphics area for you. No further actions are required and nothing is added to the selected items box. Click to confirm the selection.

 

When the check box is cleared, no emboss (art) model is selected. If it was previously selected, the software removes the emboss model from the selection.
