Projected curve not visible / selectable
Caspar
Member Posts: 17 ✭✭
Hello,
I wish to identify the point at which a projected curve pierces a plane.
When editing the sketch on the plane to be pierced I am unable to see or select the projected curve.
In fact, during any operation the projected curves only appear to be visible when selected from the feature list?
The projected curves in question are higher in the feature list than the current sketch and are unsuppressed

I think you are selecting the wrong “curve”. Create a sketch on C14, create a point, select the point and Curve 1 (from the parts list) and select the Pierce constraint. Projected Curve 5 is the feature that creates the curve, not the curve itself. Easy mistake.Senior Director, Technical Services, EMEA5

Please share the url to your doc with details of which curve you are trying to referenceSenior Director, Technical Services, EMEA0

Many thanks Neil,
The projected curve is 'projected curve 5', I'd like to find where it pierces 'C14 plane'

Hello
I am projecting a curve from one plane to another. The curve transfers but I can not use it for lofting or extruding, the tools do not take that new curve.
Does this mean that the new curve is just a guide to make a new sketch ( curvev ).
Is there a way of converting that new curve into a usable curve ?
Here is my url:
