SW curve through XYZ points
SW curve through XYZ points
(OP)
I'm trying to make a shell with an airfoil-shaped (NACA 0010) cross section. I can import the data points as a curve through XYZ points. This works fine, but the curve exists outside of a sketch so I don't really know how to work with it. I want to have the airfoil shape in a sketch so I can just extrude it. Is there an easier way to go about this? Thanks!

I think I must have been unclear in my original post. That is what I have already done. The problem is that once I do that, there's nothing I can do to the curve after that.
Thanks!

Can you post the file?

But I just found a solution a few minutes ago. I didn't know about the "converting entities" option. This converted the curve to a spline existing within the sketch, which is what I wanted to do.
Thanks for the responses! They helped me better verbalize what I was trying to do, which helped me find a solution.
