10.5.1.3.3. New 2-D sketch... (base plane)

First opens the menu with the same name (1). After confirming with OK, the 2-D Sketcher (entitled "New 2-D sketch) opens by itself (2).

Here you may create a 2-D sketch, such as for example a dimension.

Depending on which settings you make here (content menu area), you will find the 2-D Sketcher empty and/or containing a sketch.

  • Type menu area:

    • View

    • Description field : The name assigned here shows up in the History.

  • Menu area content :

    • Empty option: The Sketcher is opened. A new sketch may be created.

    • Accept current 2D derivation option : The current setting from the opened 2D derivation is transferred into the Sketcher (new 2-D sketch...). A perspective must already be selected in the 2-D view!

    • Select from sketch option: Opens the different sketches which are already created in connection with the current part. In the example (see figure), three sketches have been applied so far.

  • In the Condition menu area you can make the creation of 2-D sketches dependant on a condition.

    In the figure you can see, for example, that the value of the variables must be larger than 8.

  • Arrow keys : During a PARTdesigner session, you can make entries in the New 2D drawing window. With the arrow keys at the bottom left and right, you "jump" chronologically between these input steps.

[Note] Note

Every input step must be completed with OK.
