  • plane creation questioning

    Hello My question :how can I create a normal plane, with an origin point specified on its normal line, and with a pierce point on another specified point..... Let see on a drawing : I created the circle0 with the following code : var R = definition.Radius; var Angle = definition.myAngle; var x0 = definition.Xcoord; var y0…

  • What's the best way to center something between two points/lines/...

    Say you have two parallel lines and want to center a circle between them. It would be awesome if you could add a "center" constraint where you add the two lines (or more) and the object to be centered and it just does it. To date I've been adding a construction line between the two reference objects (lines in my example…

  • how to center sketch on center point

    Seems like such an easy thing but I have been searching for about 20 minutes to find this. I have a sketch where one corner is on the center point. I want the center point in the center of the drawing. I can't even figure out how to move the sketch on the plane. 

  • Get vertex from centre of circular edge selected in query

    If I select a circular edge in a query, how do I locate the vertex at the center of that circle? I will be creating a coordinate system from it if it makes any difference to the best approach.

  • Using centre (axis) of fillet as constraint point - possible?

    I have an extrude with a fillet on an edge. Is it possible to 'wake-up' the centre of the fillet (not the centre of the arc, but the axis point) on a sketch to use it as a inference point for further geometric construction? Only way I've found is to draw a construction circle on the sketch plane, then constrain that to be…

  • How do I find the center of a face ?

    i.e. I would like to create a circle within a circle or a new object that is in the exact middle in between two existing objects. These are maybe different tasks but the same need, Thanks !
