7.6.2.7.3.2. Variant 2: Guide curve and cross-sectional sketch separately created

Precondition: Guiding sketch and cross-sectional sketch are already available.

  1. Select both the guiding sketch and the cross-sectional sketch.

    [Note]Note

    The pattern origins of cross-sectional sketch and guiding sketch have to be in the same plane, however, not necessarily one above the other.

  2. Click on the context menu command Create sweep base.

    -> The tabbed page Sweep base is opened.

    If there are other sketches with guiding curve available, you can select them in the list field.

  3. Confirm with OK.

    -> The sweep is created.

Alternatively only the cross-sectional sketch can be selected and then on the tabbed page Sweep base, in the list field, the desired guiding sketch (if there are multiple available).
