Project to Sketch command

Copies part edges or sketch elements onto the current sketch plane. For example, you can select a part edge (A) to project onto the current sketch plane (B). The projected edge (C) can then be used in the current sketch.

A relationship symbol indicates that an element is associatively linked to the parent element. You can break the associative link on projected elements by deleting the link relationship symbols. You can trim and modify projected elements, and incorporate associatively projected elements into a sketch that contains newly created non-associative elements.

You can also add relationships or dimensions to associatively projected elements, but if the relationship or dimension conflicts with the associative relationship to the parent element, a warning message is displayed.

Note:

When you use sketch elements to construct a feature in a part document, the sketch elements are transferred to the Used Sketches collection in PathFinder. For projected elements, the associative link between the parent element and the projected element is discarded.
