Symbolic function, is a component use Shape Designer to draw a shape or portion of shape by it’s mathematical formula. Sometimes, drawing a profile is very difficult because a complex geometry, In Shape Designer if the mathematical formula of shape is known, it very easy to draw it with symbolic component. Example below, show how to use this component simply, to draw a complex geometry.
Example:
It is a geometry of a combination of two functions, x=ky2 and y=kx2 (k=1)
