In 2001 you could choose to create "from projections" but I can't find that option anywhere. I want to sketch on 2 planes and have the composite curve created. It was very simple to do before so I must be overlooking something. Does this now have to be done in style?
I am not all the way up to speed with WF2 and this was not covered in my intro to WF classes. Thanks for you advice.
Menu: Edit, Intersect.
Pre-select at least one of the planar curves.
Jeff,
Thank you, that is what I was looking for.
Doesn't seam as nice, I guess it's just another thing to get used to.
Take care, John
If you want to make composites of multiple curves, it's the same, only to select more than 2 curves, you have to redefine, sorry "edit definition" the 2 initial references to add more.
By 'not as nice' I suspect you mean 'sucks' in which case, yes, I agree. For real modelling, get a 2000x seat set up, and convert the models once you've done the work with a proper cad system.
Are we talking about Composite Curves (chaining) or Projection Intersections?
"Are we talking about Composite Curves (chaining) or Projection Intersections?"
Not chaining, I think it's called projected. I just need a 3d datum curve and in 2001 I could create that in a single feature. Insert-Datum Curve-Projected you would then select one datum plane draw the section, select another datum plane draw a section and the two sections would merge to form a 3d curve.
The Intersect funtion does that same thing just another step or two.
