Offset curve in sketch - Offset is not well-defined
Offset curve in sketch - Offset is not well-defined
(OP)
I looked for this problem and it seems that someone has already asked it on a forum but unfortunately didn`t get an answer
The problem is with offset curve in Sketch environment. I projected some curves into sketch and wanted to offset them. I get a message saying "Offset is not well-defined for the given parameters"
Have a look at the attached prt file. Go to sketch and try to offset projected curves.
Strange thing is - when I want to offset the same curves in 3D - it works fine.
I attached prt file. This is NX9 file.

RE: Offset curve in sketch - Offset is not well-defined
If you do Derived Curve -> Intersect and then Project it into Sketch - then Offset Curve inside the sketch does not work
If you do Derived Curve -> Section and then Project it into Sketch - then Offset Curve inside the sketch does work
I don`t know why but it is as I described.
