... you can create a csys within a sketch?!? You really do learn something every day! What else is that useful for?
Thanks guys, it needed both of those in the end (csys and extending the surface - adding the csys worked initially, then after I increased the number of coils it failed and still didn't work when I set it back to one!).
Also, the csys thing isn't mentioned in the top layer of help for Wrap... but I guess that's standard for Pro/E. ![]()
(OK, it's mentioned in About the Wrap Feature.)
| 1. | Select the sketched datum curve to wrap onto geometry. |
| 2. | Click EditWrap. The Wrap dashboard appears. A preview shows the sketched curve wrapped on the first geometry that the Wrap tool finds in the default wrapping direction. |
| 3. | To select different geometry, click the collector next to ![Image]() on the dashboard, and then select the geometry to wrap in the graphics window. You can also select geometry using the Destination collector on the References panel. |
| 4. | To select the wrap origin, click the collector next to ![Image]() on the dashboard, and then use the down arrow to select the origin from the list. |
| 5. | If you wrap a disconnected sketch onto a multi-contour surface, and want to prevent the sketch from wrapping onto intersecting surfaces, select the Ignore intersection surface check box. |
| 6. | If you want to trim at the surface boundary the portion of the curve that cannot be wrapped, select the Trim at boundary check box. |
| 7. | Click ![Image]() . The sketched curve is wrapped on the geometry that you selected. |
