The path is often selected directly from the main model window, however it can also be selected from the Tree view (Model Tab of Combo View).
Pt dz6700u edge blending series#
Path: can be a line (Edge) or series of connecting lines, wire or various Part Workbench primitives, Draft Workbench features or a Sketch.There are various profile limitations and complications, see below, however the profiles may come from the Part Workbench primitives, Draft Workbench features and Sketches. Edges and wires may be either open or closed.
Profiles: can be a point (vertex), line (Edge), wire or face.The sweep will be generated along all the contiguous edges found in the 2D object. Complete path selection: switch to the Model tab, select the 2D object to be used as path in the tree, switch back to the Task panel and click Done.The sweep will only be generated along the selected edges. Single segment selection: select one or more contiguous edges in the 3D view (press CTRL for multiple selection) and click Done.Click on the Sweep Path button, then choose either mode of selection:.Use the up and down arrows to reorder the selected profiles. Repeat if more than one profile is desired. In the Available Profiles left column (previously Vertex/Edge/Wire/Face in v0.16), click on the element to be used as sweep profile, then click on the right arrow to place it in the Selected profiles right column (previously Sweep in v0.16).This opens the Sweep parameters in the Task panel.
