    Profiles of Complex Geometry

    I am fighting SolidWorks to create boundaries of the profiles of complex parts within a .SLDDRW file. I have been semi-successful in being able to hide tangent edges and select SOME profile edges, which are then bilaterally offset to make the profile boundary. Unfortunately, there are some...
