I cant use "Offset Entities" on splines and "Curve through free points"
Dear Fellas
I seem unable to use the “Offset Entities”- tool (in sketch mode) on:
* Spline
* Curves created by importing a set of coordinates (in a .txt-file) via “Curve through free points…” (under “Curve” under “Insert”) and then using the “Convert Entities” to get them onto the actual sketch plane.
Using the offset tool on a “line”, a “rectangle” or a “circle” for example is no problem. I am using the 2003-version of SolidWorks. Is this the reason, that earlier versions have a limitation here? Surely it works for todays versions. Now I solve it by simply extrude the part and “shell” however I am quite crippled by this limitation.
