We reinterpret the Scherk-Schwarz (SS) boundary condition for SU(2)_R in acompactified five-dimensional (5D) Poincare supergravity in terms of thetwisted SU(2)_U gauge fixing in 5D conformal supergravity. In such translation,only the compensator hypermultiplet is relevant to the SS twist, and variousproperties of the SS mechanism can be easily understood. Especially, we showthe correspondence between the SS twist and constant superpotentials within ourframework.Comment: 16 pages, no figur
