More Information
Summary:The invention notably relates to a method for designing a 3D modeled object that represents a mechanical part. The method comprises providing, at a CAD system, a B-Rep skin which represents the mechanical part. The B-rep skin has a B-rep portion which includes a boundary face. The method also comprises defining, by graphical user-interaction with the CAD system, a surface, and constructing, automatically by the CAD system, a B-rep replacement. The method further comprises replacing, in the B-Rep skin, the B-rep portion by the B-rep replacement. This offers a "replace face" functionality when designing a B-Rep skin.
