Dimsioning aSwept Helix?????
Dimsioning aSwept Helix?????
(OP)
I have a single loop helix and I swept a.312 dia. circle along it as a path. When I import the model into the drawing I now find that I can not add a center point to dimension to and I can not dimension the radius. Is there any way I can add the dimension to this drawing? Thank you in advance to any kind soul who can answer this for me.

Not every sketch requires a Feature.

Or just fake it somehow.

So an ID helix would have the sweep sketch attached to the helix so that it sweeps on the outside of the helix. If an OD helix, the sweep sketch would sweep the inside of the helix.
