Draw a mesh region using the Polyline tool
-
Click the Mat Boundary by Polyline tool in the Select toolbar.
The mouse pointer changes to the Polyline tool pointer.
- Click the first vertex of the polygon. A line is "rubber banded" to the initial point from your mouse pointer. This indicates the potential new region edge for the subsequent point. At times, this will also jump to key points (such as supports) to ensure they are enclosed. Clicked points will override this behavior.
- Click, in sequence, on the points on the grid going in either a clockwise or a counter-clockwise order.
-
Once you have clicked on all the points that define the boundary of your slab, return to your starting point or right-click.
