Create Profile on X-Z and Y-Z Planes


Recommended Posts

Within IC2013PU1 most of my work lately has been structured part mode where there is a lot of freedom in positioning and orientating the 2D sketch plane.

 

I have just tried creating some 2D sketches in innovative part mode and have discovered that when I right click on either the X-Y and Y-Z planes and select "Create Profile", the resulting 2D sketch is positioned and orientated on the incorrect plane, whereas the X-Y plane works fine.

 

Has anyone else been experiencing this problem?

Hi Kevin, thanks for the reply. I get the same result as your video.

 

I see now that my confusion was in the naming of the axes within the 2D sketch, verses the naming of the world coordinate axes in the 3D scene.

 

The 2D sketch always names the axes as X-Y, and these aren't related to the world coordinate axes in the bottom left of the 3D scene.

 

Happy now that I understand that.
