Command -  Prb_ResetTwistAngle

     


This command will recalculate the twist angle of a profile with a helix axis.

The twist angle is what keeps a flat bar 'upright' on the helix path.

The current twist angle value can be found in the properties of the profile.

Moreover, when a profile is linked with a macro to the helix, then the macro will maintain the twist angle so that this command is not needed.

A Circular Hollow Section does not need to have a correct twist angle because the section shape is fully symmetric.
