AutoCAD Using Polar Tracking and PolarSnap

Because everything that you create requires some degree of precision, it is critical that you learn the different options for creating geometry accurately and yet efficiently. Previously, you learned how to enter coordinate data in the form of absolute and relative coordinates. These methods, though important, are not always the most efficient for creating geometry. Using polar tracking and PolarSnap, you can create geometry with the same precision as coordinate entry allows you, but more efficiently. To use these features, you need to adjust their options and turn them on using the status bar buttons. In the following illustration, the same paths are being drawn using polar tracking and PolarSnap. The alignment paths appear as dotted lines extended indefinitely from the point of your cursor. The polar tooltips display the current position of the cursor relative to the last point selected. The path on the left is using polar tracking with an absolute angle measurement, while the path on the right is using the Relative to Last Segment option.

Creating Parallel Line in Unigraphics 3d

Parallel line are created in much the same as tangent line. select application or modelling. create line. Open the Line tool. Make sure the Associative option is selected. Select a start point for the new line. Use the Snap Point tool to aid object selection. The New Line Start Point with Inferred Auto-Plane For clarity in this example, we have used F3 to turn off most of the dynamic input boxes. Set the end constraint to Angle. Select the existing line you want the new line to be parallel with. Existing Line Highlighted The Angle Handle Displays on Selection of the Line The auto-plane changes to match the plane of the selected line, and the Angle handle and a dashed reference line displays. If Snap Point is disabled, you can select the existing line without having to first set the end constraint to Angle, as the system will infer the Angle constraint anyway. Drag the angle handle to 180 or 0 degrees. The parallel symbol displays when the line is parallel. At 0 or 180 Degrees the Lines are Parallel As you drag the angle handle, a parallel symbol displays at 0 and 180 degrees in reference to the selected line, and a perpendicular symbol at 90 and 270 degrees. Drag the start and/or end handles or specify a value to get the desired length. Click MB2 or Apply to create the parallel line.

Solidworks Projected Sketch on Sketch

Step by Step make a Projected Sketch on Sketch

1. Create a sketch using the two pieces of the plane perpendicular to each other

    Create as an example in figure 1a & 1b

2. Select the menu Projected (Insert ==> Curve ==> Projected)

3. Select the type Projection Sketch on Sketch, select sketch 1a and 1b on the box
sketch choice. Select OK (green check mark)

4. The result will look like the figure 4

5. If we use to sweep the result will look just as figure 5


You can project a sketched curve onto a model face to create a 3D curve. You can also create a 3D curve that represents the intersection of two extruded surfaces generated by creating sketches on two intersecting planes. You can preselect items before you click Project Curve . If you preselect items, SolidWorks attempts to select the appropriate type of projection . You can right-click in the graphics area and select a projection type from the
shortcut menu. When you have selected enough entities to create a projected curve, the OK pointer appears. Right-click to create the projected curve. To project a curve: Click Project Curve on the Curves toolbar, or Insert, Curve, Projected. The Projected Curve PropertyManager appears. Under Selections, set Projection Type to one of the following: Sketch on Faces Sketch on Sketch A preview of the projected curve appears. Click OK to create the projected curve, or Cancel to cancel the transaction.
