Theoretical Positions

It is possible to create the theoretical positions of an electrode in the Electrode document.

Creation stages / Use:

Click the icon or select the Construction > Patterns > Repetition... command from the drop-down menu.

Modifications / Additional information:

The theoretical positions of each electrode are associated to their electrode template.
The positions are managed by the Electrode note and Electrodes table.
A Theoretical Positions folder is created under the electrode, in the Electrode tree. It groups the theoretical positions of the electrode.
A same folder is created in the set folder.

It is forbidden to repeat a electrode with chosing a symmetrical pattern, to avoid the creation of a mirror electrode.

To create a "symmetrical" theoretical position, choose a symmetrical pattern with a transforms type by rotation for example.
To create a new symmetrical electrode, it is necessary to repeat the eroding shape symmetrically and then create a new electrode from this new eroding shape. This sequence of operations is automatically done during a symmetrical repetition.
