Maximum cutback

For each Cutback (or Stretch & Cutback) adjuster, you can set a maximum allowed cutback (“Max. cutback”). This distance is measured between unadjusted 1D Member Nodes and/or unadjusted 2D Member planes, in the structural analysis model.

Maximum overhang of Physical body

In contrast to the maximum cutback value (which refers to the structural member), the Maximum overhang refers to the physical element’s protrusion. Set this limit so that longer extensions in the physical model (e.g. consoles) are not cut back.

Note: The defined tolerances are length-type values: the units specified for Length in Preferences > Working Units apply.
