Editing contours for cycles
The ICP contours of the cycle editing function are assigned names.
The contour name is the same as the file name. The contour name
is also used in the calling cycle.
You can define the contour name in the following ways:
Define the contour name in the cycle dialog before calling the
ICP editor submode (FK input field). ICP loads this name
Define the contour name in the ICP editor submode. The input
field FK has to be empty when you call the ICP editor submode
Load the existing contour. When you exit the ICP editor
submode, the name of the contour last edited is loaded into the
FK input field
Creating a new contour:
Define the contour name in the cycle dialog
and press the Edit ICP soft key. The ICP editor
submode switches to entering the contour
Alternative: Press the Edit ICP soft key. The ICP
editor submode opens the Select ICP contours
window
Define the contour name in the File name: field
and press the Open soft key. The ICP editor
submode switches to contour input
Select the CONTOUR GEOMETRY menu item
Press the Insert element soft key
ICP waits for you to enter a new contour
