Auto sketch will create the sketches like line, circle, arc automatically from poly line.

 

 How to use Auto Sketch command

1.

To use Auto Sketch, you need to create polyline from mesh data.

2.

Click Mesh Sketch and select Front plane.

3.

Move the blue arrow to create polyline of section.

4.

Click OK and hide mesh data and planes.

5.

Reduce Resolution in the Segment Section Polyline.

 

 

6.

The segments of polyline are reduced as the image below.

 

7.

Click  button on the toolbar or click Tools > Sketch Tools > Auto Sketch. Select whole segments and Click OK. XOR creates automatically 2D sketch.

 

 

Options in Detail

 

·   Create Entities – If you check this option and click OK, XOR creates entities using whole polyline in its sketch. You also select partial polyline and try executing auto sketch.

 

·   Sew Entities – If this option is selected, the entities will be connected.

 

·   Add Tangent – If this option is enabled, tangent constraint is added to be created entities.

 

·   Max. Sewing Distance – While connecting the unconnected points, if the distance between the points is less than the specified distance the points will be connected.

 

·   Intersect Tolerance – when the lines are intersecting, if the distance is less than the specified value then only a single line is created.

 

·   Tangent Angle Tolerance – Tolerance for tangent connection.
