    Hi,

     

    i don't understand, what you want to know exactly.

     

    It is the sames procedure as usual. Do you have checked the help file (midsurface panel->extraction options)?

     

    Regards,

    Mario

    I think it's difficult to get perfect midsurf of this kind of part

    because usually thickness varies, and many complex T-connections, variable fillet radius and width

    so with it you should manually make midsurf, between each surface pair, then extend surface, trim, etc

    auto-midsurf just works well with sheet part and simple rib part

     

    Have a good job.
