Cleaning v5 models
Cleaning v5 models
(OP)
When developing a part in V5, is there any way of cleaning up the final model, getting rid of unnecessary geometry and construction elements and therefore reducing the final model size? In V4 I used the KEEP function, is there anything similar in V5?

I tried what you said but when I go to the tools menu that option is not there. I am at v5r10, what are you on? This seems to be a useful tool if I could figure out how to use it.

You should go in the Generative Shape Design Workbench. This function is not available in PartDesign nor WireFrame and Surfaces...

I've had mixed results in using it, as it cleans up (deletes) too much geometry. I'd suggest you save your part before you run it, so you can always go back if you have to.
Anybody else have problems with it?

V5 is having one utility as "CATDUA" for cleaning of the model. To use it, click File>>Desk this will activate one tree structure of the current model. MB3 (Right click) on the appropriate stage. In contextual menu you will get "CATDUAV5" .It will give one window of CATDUAv5 from there you can check or clean the part
