Example Use of INTERPOLATE (Select Items Mode)

Selected Item(s): None In this figure the shells around the hole on the flat plate have been raised, with no nodes selected for interpolation. It is clear that only the shells selected for ORIENT have moved, and adjacent nodes are unaffected.

Order = 1.0, Fix Free Edge Nodes: ON In this figure the same shells have been moved, but now the whole plane part has been selected for interpolation. Therefore, the shells around the hole on the flat plate have been raised, with a linear interpolation between the selected nodes and the edge of the plane mesh.

Order = 1.0, Fix Free Edge Nodes: ON In this figure the same shells have been moved, but only a section of the plane has been selected for interpolation. Therefore, the shells around the hole on the flat plate have been raised, with a linear interpolation between the selected nodes and the fixed nodes (boundary of nodes selected for interpolation).
