Litio 2.0 - 3D Sheet metal software for AutoCAD.
Advanced features case study: How to make non-standard transitions using free transitions special feature of LITIO 2.
Types of entities that can be picked to create free transitions: 3D meshes created by Litio 2.0; or 2D and 3D polylines; or circles, located in AutoCAD's 3D space. Remember that resulting 3D objects cannot have concavities.
The following entities are not accepted: arcs [arcs need to be converted to polylines using the PEDIT command] nor ellipses [ellipse pattern of LITIO 2.0 can be used].)
Transition is created.
When seam position is a concern, free transitions can be made from sectors of polylines.
For entities situated on parallel Z [zet] planes, corresponding ends shall have their tangents at the same angle. For arc segments it means, that corresponding ends start or end at the same angular positions. Polylines are shown here in different colors for better understanding.
Video shows all this process and photo of actual object.
