3D sketch, points and User defined coord system
3D sketch, points and User defined coord system
(OP)
I want 3D point on 3D sketch to be "dimensioned" from User Defined Coordinate System - how can I do it ??
I did some Search on the Forum and it looks like one can NOT move the Origin - Am I correct ? SW2006 SP5.0
In Help there is the following:
This does not seem to work for me - what am I doing wrong ?

To change the coordinate system for your 3D sketch, click the desired sketch tool, hold down the Ctrl key, and click [........] a user-defined coordinate system.

RE: 3D sketch, points and User defined coord system
Good afternoon, this is working well for me..
1) Insert a 3D Sketch
2) Select the Line Tool
3) While holding the CTRL key select the Coordinate System
4) Let go of the CTRL key
5) Now you have changed Coordinate Systems and you can sketch in the new Coordinate System
6) Press the Tab key to scroll thru the Front, Right, Top planes of the new Coordinate System
7) Sketch the line and rotate the view to ensure the line is in the new Coordinate System

Joseph

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but have you actually created the co-ord system you want to change to?
