      <hr noshade="true">
      <p class="para_topic">The Ejector Pin Post Processing dialog uses two selection steps to perform the Trim Process procedures: Target Bodies and Tool Sheets.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Target Bodies Selection Step</div>
      <p class="para_division">In the Target Bodies selection step, there are three ejector pin processing options on the dialog:</p>
      <ul>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item">Adjust Length</p>
         </li>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item">Sheet trim</p>
         </li>
         <li>
            <p class="para_item">Untrim</p>
         </li>
      </ul>
      <div class="title_division">Adjust Length</div>
      <p class="para_division">Select Adjust Length to adjust ejector pins parametrically rather than trimmed with a molding surface. This option does not use linked geometry, which results in smaller files. Smaller files decrease update times</p>
      <div class="title_division">Sheet Trim </div>
      <p class="para_division">Select Sheet Trim to trim ejector pins with a molding surface. This option uses linked geometry, which results in larger files. Larger files increase update times</p>
      <div class="title_division">UnTrim </div>
      <p class="para_division">Select &nbsp;UnTrim to remove selected ejector pins from ejector pin processing.</p>
      <div class="title_division">True </div>
      <p class="para_division">Select True to display the target ejector pin component in a TRUE reference set.</p>
      <div class="title_division">False </div>
      <p class="para_division">Select False to display the target ejector pin component in a FALSE &nbsp;reference set.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Both</div>
      <p class="para_division">Select Both to display the target ejector pin component in an Entire Part reference set.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Fit Distance </div>
      <p class="para_division">Use Fit Distance to specify the distance from the lowest portion of the trimmed face of the ejector pin to the beginning of the relief clearance. An adjustment will be made to the parameter in the ejector pin named &quot;clr_lvl&quot;.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Tool Sheets Selection Step</div>
      <p class="para_division">In the Tool Sheets selection step, you use the Trim Part and Trim Surface dialog options. </p>
      <div class="title_division">Trim Part</div>
      <p class="para_division">Use Trim Part &nbsp;to specify which file contains the surface that will be used to trim the ejector pin. By default, the trim part will be used. You can add alternate components to Trim Part using &nbsp;functions on the Trim Component tab.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Trim Surface</div>
      <p class="para_division">Use Trim Surface to specify which surface from the previously selected Trim Part will be used to process the selected ejector pins. Each trim part may have multiple Trim Sheets. Select Faces lets you directly select any faces which will be geometry-linked to the ejector pin component and used to trim the ejector pin. The Select Faces method allows a minimum number of faces to be selected to economize on file size.</p>
      <table border="0">
