Generate wire from composite in sketch

You can generate wire data using a composite feature, from the intersection of planes, in both the 2D and 3D sketches.

Generate wire from composite in 2D sketch

1. Import surface data to a composite feature.
2. Place a 2D sketch which intersects the composite.
3. In the sketch, click Sketch tab Draw panel Project Cut Edges from the ribbon.
4. Select the composite feature.

Curves are generated at the intersection of the sketch plane and any surface that crossed the plane. The curves update when the sketch is moved.

Generate wire from composite in 3D sketch

1. Import surface data to a composite feature.
2. Generate a surface which intersects the composite feature.
3. Start a new 3D sketch.
4. In the 3D sketch, click 3D Sketch tab Draw panel Intersection Curve from the ribbon.
5. Select the composite and the surface.
6. Click OK.

3D curves are generated in the 3D sketch at the intersection point. Curves update when intersection bodies are updated.

Note: Endpoints of the wires are not constrained. Offset behavior may be inconsistent.
