I am quite new to Pro/E and would appreciate some help. Using Wildfire 2.
My intention is to sweep a constant section along a trajectory. Problem is, when I used the Insert -> Sweep function, Pro/E asks me to select the trajectory (ok! no problems here), then to go into sketch mode to sketch out the section.
But I've already sketched out the section beforehand - and seem to be unable to just select this section and proceed. Why? Any method to do this? I don't want to have to sketch out the section again...
Next problem, if I choose to sketch after selecting the trajectory, the sketch plane is automatically normal or perpendicular to the trajectory. How can I change this to some other plane, if at all possible? Again, Pro/E doesn't seem to give me an option here??
