    Splines in Solidworks DRAWINGS

    Any other insight on this? Is it correct/fully defined in a drawing to only dimension the points of the spline?

    Splines in Solidworks DRAWINGS

    I've attached a part file. See how I had to define the handle angle to a reference line, as well as the handle ordinate? Without doing so, the spline would not be fully defined (in the sketch entity). So when you try to create a drawing from this part, the only dimensions that are retained are...

    Splines in Solidworks DRAWINGS

    Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. I created a part file. The main sketch that defines the part contains splines. I was able to fully define the splines in the sketch (within the part file). Now, I want to make a drawing of this part, so I created a new drawing and inserted the appropriate...

    Splines in Solidworks DRAWINGS

    Hi all: I've got a part I am trying to make an engineering drawing for. The part uses several splines. I did some searching on here and learned how to fully define the spline (so it turns black) in my sketches in the part file. However, when I import a view from the part into a Solidworks...
