1). How to create alphabets projection on surface?
type text in drawing - save as dxf - open dxf - copy - past on 3d plane - project
2). How to create solid sweep in part design?
draw one curve - draw another curve - click RIB icon
3). How to differential between closed surface and solid?
one is a surface in a geometrical set, the other is a solid in PartBody or Body
4). In the model tree, how to know which process is activated/deactivated?
the icon next to the feature

But problem (1), it is very INCONVENIENCE for jig/mould maker like us to engrave alphabet on the specified surface. In Pro/Engineer, we can do it much faster and convenience than Catia.

Best regards.

That's probably your answer, right there, then... (after all, a tool maker has no need to release Catia data)

I'm paid hourly - slow and inconvenient (oh and free) is just my style. Not everything in life has to be one click away.

And that is exactly why your offshore competition is on this board, making Catia related inquiries.
