1 Introduction
1.4 Graphics and Status Display
Projection in three planes
3D view
1-16
Here the program is displayed as in a technical
drawing, with a plan view and two orthographic
sections. A conical symbol near the graphic indicates
whether the display is in first angle or third
angle projection according to ISO 6433. The type of
projection can be selected with MP 7310.
Moving the sectional plane
The sectional planes can moved to any position
with the arrow keys. The position of the sectional
plane is displayed on the screen while it is being
moved.
This mode displays the simulated workpiece in
three-dimensional space.
Rotating the 3D view
In the 3D view, the image can be rotated around
the vertical axis with the horizontal arrow keys.
The angle of orientation is indicated with a special
symbol:
0 0 rotation
90 0 rotation
180 0 rotation
270 0 rotation
3D view, not true to scale
If the height-to-side ratio is between 0.5 and 50, a non-scaled 3D view can
be selected with the vertical arrow keys. This view improves the resolution
of the shorter workpiece side.
The dimensions of the angle orientation symbol change to indicate the
disproportion.
