Hello UG Forum,
This is the second time I have created a solid of revolution, but something is wrong this time and I don't know what it is. Might you be inclined to help me?
The screenshot below shows a sketch of a boss that I would like to revolve. The sketch was created by moving the WCS to an offset from the nearest corner and then sketching on that datum plane. I don't know if this matters, but I set two of the lines in the sketch to be fixed: the one that is is colinear with XC and the other that is colinear with ZC (even thought I said colinear, I didn't use a colinear constraint - know what I mean?). Also, all surrounding "vertical" walls are tapered.
The procedure I am following is insert -> design feature -> revolve. That procedure brings up the dialog in the 2nd screen capture below. The help seems to indicate that I should get a different dialog. What am I supposed to do to revolve this boss sketch about ZC to obtain the solid boss?
Thank you for your time,
