Details on Collision Check
Information on the Collisions check dialog.
With the collision check it is possible to find and display collisions of any kind within a project or between several projects.
You are here:
Project
Drop-down list for selecting the projects whose models are to be checked for collisions. The projects linked to the current project are also displayed. Multiple selection is possible for both columns.
Categories and systems
You can check any selection of categories for collisions with any selection of system classes. A category contains components with similar functions. Systems contain all available system classes from the System classes dialog grouped by discipline. Categories and system classes are not congruent. Components of a system class are not all in the same category and the other way around.
