The ultimate 3D modeling product design and development tool.™

Enhanced Rib Tool

Cobalt’s Rib Solid tool has been enhanced to include several options. Previously Mid Line was the only extrusion available. Now when the Rib tool is selected from the Solids tool palette the options appear in the Message line.

One Side: Extrudes from one side or the other of the profile line using a negative or positive number to control both the thickness and the side.

Two Sides: Extrudes the distances specified for both directions from the profile line.

Mid Line: Extrudes an equal distance in both directions from the profile line.

Extend Rib Profiles: Check this box to automatically extend the rib to meet the corresponding faces of the related solid. If left unchecked the rib will only be as long as the profile line.
