Retentions positioning tool

The Retentions positioning tool retentions positioning is dedicated to the Hybrid bar to place small 'bumps' on the bar to increase its retentive properties.

When designing a Hybrid bar, you are allowed to configure and place retentive elements from the Retentions retentions icon parameters.

Note

Some markets may restrict the use of the retentive elements on bars; in that case, a message will appear.

If using the cursor, adjust the height and the radius by dragging them directly on the object.

Notes

Hover the retention with the cursor. When a red cap appears on the top of the retention, you can drag the height (1 mm - 6 mm in height). When an orange circle appears around the circumference of the retention, you can drag the radius (0,5 mm - 1,5 mm radius).

Notice the highlight colors around the retentions. Red means the retention is too close to another retention or cylinder. White shows the selected retention.
