Definitions

Parameter Values Description
PROJTOL 0.0 < Real < 0.5

Default = 0.05

PROJTOL is only activated when a search without PROJTOL finds no candidate shell to build connectivity for a connector element. This prevents the search from picking the wrong shell element in cases when PROJTOL is not needed.
