Sketch Functions

Sketch

The functions for the creation and processing of (planar) Sketches and 3-D Sketches can be found on the Sketch tab:

This tab is activated automatically when you choose a planar sketch or a 3-D sketch in the drawing or in the ICN.

The tab consists of the following function groups.

Function groups

New

Creation of new planar sketches and 3-D sketches; placing of sketch planes, insertion of isolated points.

Draw

Insertion of polylines, polygons, circles, arcs, ellipses, curves, text contours; setting of parameters.

Derive

Insertion of parallels, taking over of sketch elements from other parts, projections onto surfaces or planes, approximation of sketch elements.

Process

Filleting and chamfering of sketches, changing of edges/lines of sketches, deleting of individual sketch elements

Transform

Transforming of sketch elements.

Clone

Copying of sketch elements.

Tools

Further functions for the creation and processing of sketch elements and for the definition of sketch elements as auxiliary geometries.

HCM

Assigning of HCM constraints to a sketch (parameterisation of a sketch)

 

Please note that not all functions of the tab are available for sketches and 3-D sketches. The unavailable functions are greyed out, depending on whether a sketch or a 3.-D sketch is active.
