Project the Planar Sketch to the surface as the 3D Sketch

Project a sketch drafted on a plane onto a free-form face, for example a cylindrical face. As the result is the 3D sketch to the part surface.

Add a new sketch to a planar face and draw a polyline. Project the sketch onto a cylindrical face. In the end, select the sweep, in which the cross-section is controlled by the 3D sketch.

Draw a sketch on a plane and project the sketch onto a free-form face.

1. Select a planar face from a part.
2. Select the context-sensitive function New Sketch.
3. Draw the sketch in the sketching mode, and select Confirm.
4. Select Project to Face as the operation.
5. Select one or more faces onto which the sketch is projected:
