Curves from planes


Recommended Posts

I need to create a bunch of 2d curves on a part that is very prismatic with 3 different angled surfaces. So what I've been doing is been using CAD - Creating features - Section. I'll pick the surface I want to create, then use a space point to get the sine and cosine values to plug into that nominal plane, the move it where I want it into the part (model), intersect it and create my curves. This works fine, but is time consuming. Does anyone have a better (faster) way of doing this?

But honestly, it's a real shame! Because ACIS is a full-fledged CAD core with loads of possibilities. It's only Calypso that doesn't utilize its full potential. Of course, Calypso is no CAD software, but a bit more CAD-like convenience wouldn't be asked too much.
I demand that the same amount of developer enthusiasm that is put into PiWeb Reporting is also invested here.
