Project geometry to sketch plane

Project model geometry or unconsumed geometry onto the active sketch plane.

  1. On the ribbon 3D Model tab Sketch panel, click Create 2D Sketch.
  2. In the graphics area, click a face or work plane to set the sketch plane.
  3. On the ribbon, Sketch tab Draw panel, click Project Geometry .
  4. In the graphics area, click the geometry (edges, vertices, work features, loops, and curves from existing sketches) to project onto the sketch plane. If the selection target is not visible, rotate the model.

    If you select a loop (closed spline, circle, or ellipse), a face highlights when there are several possible selections. Use Select Other to cycle through selections, and when the geometry highlights, click to select.

    Click a face to project all loops on the face.

  5. When finished selecting all required geometry, click Esc, or click another command to quit.
