Why Helix doesn't work

Why Helix doesn't work

Why Helix doesn't work

(OP)
Hi everyone.

I was wondering why helix doesn't work.
The help says to sketch a cicle, then select it and click over the helix button or the menu command.

Well, the menu command or the button in the curves toorbar are grayed out. Am I missing another step ?

Thanks in advance,

V.

RE: Why Helix doesn't work

Draw your circle, then close the sketch.  Then re-select the circle and Insert>Curves>Helix.  It should work.
