How can i name a face or a set of faces?
Solved! Go to Solution.
The way I've always seen this done is from model properties. File --> Prepare --> Model Properties --> Names (Change). Just pick a face (surface) and name it.
This works for any of these types:
Uwe,
Could you please explain this in detail?
Hello,
i want select one or more Faces and then givem them a name. Named faces can very easy found by the search tool.
Uwe,
I've found personally that the easiest way to name a surface is to use the "Parameters" window.
With your model open, go to Tools -> Parameters. In the window that appears, change the dropdown to select "Surface"
You can then enter the desired name - here I use "SIDE_OF_BOX" as the name.
Once that is complete, your surface will have the assigned name.
You can check this using the "Find" tool (CTRL+F) - and searching for "Surfaces" - "By Name". You should see your new name in the list of results.
There may be a much faster way to do it... but that's just what I've always done
Hope this helps!
