Source model GCD
The source model GCD allows you to visualize the difference between the initial raw part (the “source” model”) and the finished machined part by displaying a transparent representation of the source model while you are viewing the finished model.
To view the results of the simple 2-Model Machining costing described above:
1 Ensure that the costed 2-Model Machining part is open.
2 In the Geometric Cost Drivers panel, expand the Component GCD in the Name column.
3 Click SourceModel in the Name column.
The component viewer updates to display the finished part, with the volume of the initial part highlighted in magenta around it.
