Edit the 3D Sketch of a Profile
Profile Structure Design
Usage examples
- The function is intended for profiles that have not been added to the guide curve.
- The function opens the 3D sketch of a profile for editing.
- You can edit the length of the 3D sketch, position the sketch and thereby the profile in other geometry, etc.
Edit the 3D Sketch of a Profile
- Select the profile to be edited.
- Start the function
- On the tab, in the Cross Section group, select 3D Sketch.
- or the context-sensitive function: Edit Profile > 3D Sketch.
- Edit the 3D sketch, for example as follows:
- Double-click the dimension figure of the distance constraint and enter a new value for the length.
- Position the sketch to other geometry using geometric constraints.
- Note that in this case, the tool strip function Use external geometry with sketch constraints must be selected.
- You must not delete the 3D sketch (line) of the profile part.
- To end editing the 3D sketch, select the context-sensitive function: OK
Example
- First, the distance constraint of the 3d sketch has been modified.
- Then, the 3d sketch line is positioned with the coincidence constraint to the guide line of the base.
