Abstract
A computer-implemented method of designing a modeled assembly of at least one object in a computer-aided design system, the method comprising the steps of providing a set of icons, each icon being representative of a range of scales of size; determining the dimensions of a view (40) of said modeled assembly; and displaying continuously the icon representative of the range of scales of size corresponding to said dimensions.
Claims16
A computer-implemented method of designing a modeled assembly of at least one object in a computer-aided design system, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a set of icons, each icon being representative of a range of scales of size;
- determining the dimensions of a view of said modeled assembly;
- and
- displaying continuously the icon representative of the range of scales of size corresponding to said dimensions.
A computer program product, stored on a computer readable medium, for designing an assembly of objects in a system of computer-aided design, the computer program comprising code means for causing the system of computer-aided design to take the steps:
- providing a set of icons, each icon being representative of a range of scales of size;
- determining the dimensions of a view of said modeled assembly;
- and
- displaying continuously the icon representative of the range of scales of size corresponding to said dimensions.
An apparatus for designing an assembly of objects in a system of computer-aided design, the apparatus comprising means for implementing the steps of:
- providing a set of icons, each icon being representative of a range of scales of size;
- determining the dimensions of a view of said modeled assembly;
- and
- displaying continuously the icon representative of the range of scales of size corresponding to said dimensions.
