Workflow
1. Choose Components Template
You can create patterned panels by using the Components Template.
2. Create Adaptive Points
A conceptual design environment uses adaptive points when designing adaptive components. A square shape already creates adaptive points. Reference points are made adaptive by incorporating them into generic adoptive families. By default, adaptive reference points have a placement point. Numbering the adaptive points will follow their order of placement.
Adaptive components result from drawing geometry using these adaptive points. Changing the order of the numbers is as simple as picking one number, changing it, and the rest will follow.
3. Geometry Creation
Adaptive points each have an X, Y, and Z plane, so you know that before modeling any geometry. Make sure 3D snapping enables before creating a new surface by drawing a Reference Line from one point to another. You can do this by selecting the Create & Modify tab, then Model Lines or Reference Lines, and turning on 3D Snapping.
The Create form tool operates in a similar manner to other Geometry Tools, even though you won't find normal buttons such as Extrusion, Sweep, Blend, etc. in Adaptive components:
