The Sketcher is the graphic environment used by Cimatron E to create 2D parametric geometry. The 2D geometry can then be used in other part functions, or in NC. The Sketcher is a powerful, yet intuitive, tool enabling you to create and modify entities in relation to each other.
Using the Sketcher, you can:
Create geometric entities relative to other entities.
Project entities from another plane as reference entities or as geometric entities.
Define dimensions for entities.
Edit entities.
Add constraints to an entity.
Export (save) the geometries you have created.
Import (load) geometries that have been saved.
When you open the Sketcher, the Sketcher toolbar appears on the right side of the graphical display area, providing you with all options.
