The second tab lets you specify the format of the curve you wish to generate.

For both types, you can choose between creating the curve and/or the points.

  • If the '' format2DWhen '' is selected, it is possible to select a plane or face of a component on which to create the curve. If no information is entered, the entity will be created on the face plane of the 3D document (part or assembly).


 


  • If the '' format3DWhen '' is selected, either a 3D sketch or a 3D curve can be generated.


 


In the example below, a 3D curve and points are generated. The "Vehicle origin" frame of reference is selected. If "Global reference frame" is selected, entities are generated at the origin of the 3D document.
