### Detecting Collisions

The Operation | Graphics Display Window | Collision Detection menu option (CD) displays the Collision Detection dialog box. The CD module is designed to detect collisions between the probe and CAD surfaces. All CAD curves, lines, and points are ignored. As a result, only CAD files that fully describe the part using surfaces are suitable for collision detection. (The CD algorithm doesn't use the actual surface definitions, but rather the surface tessellations (or graphical approximations), which are also used for rendering solid views using the OpenGL graphics language.)

Changing Animation Speeds: If you want to modify your offline animation speeds, see the "Execution area" in the General tab of the SetUp Options dialog box. In addition, see "Executing and Debugging Part Programs Off-Line" in "Working in Off-line Mode".
