  We reinterpret the Scherk-Schwarz (SS) boundary condition for SU(2)_R in a
compactified five-dimensional (5D) Poincare supergravity in terms of the
twisted SU(2)_U gauge fixing in 5D conformal supergravity. In such translation,
only the compensator hypermultiplet is relevant to the SS twist, and various
properties of the SS mechanism can be easily understood. Especially we show the
equivalence between the SS twist and boundary constant superpotentials at the
full supergravity level.
