Creating Splines - Creating Open Sketch Splines
Creating Open Sketch Splines
RevWorks creates splines from a set of three or more digitized points. The points collected for splines are projected to the active sketch plane before the spline is calculated. Open sketch splines have a beginning and end points that are not coincident.
To Create an Open Sketch Spline
-
From the RevWorks toolbar, select
,
or from the RevWorks toolbar right click on any displayed Spline or Curve icon and choose Sketch Spline > Open,
or select Spline > Sketch Spline > Open from the RevWorks menu in SOLIDWORKS.
RevWorks prompts you to begin digitizing points.
-
Digitize a minimum of three points.
Note: RevWorks automatically creates the spline feature once you digitize the maximum number of points.
-
If you collect more than three points, but less than the maximum number of points for a spline, select
or another completion option to calculate the feature.
RevWorks generates a spline from the collected data and draws it on the active SOLIDWORKS sketch plane.
