How do you project a sketch on a non-flat surface?

Hello

 

I think projected curves can do the trick, see this tutorial:

Yes, apart from the projected curves, I don't see too much :p

I used it for "Anakin's helmet"

Create an offset plane on the x-surface

On this plane, create the sketch close it

Atelier Solid Icon on the Right Curve 

take projected curve

Sketch on the face by selecting the correct sketch

That's it

See this link to curves whose curves projected at 8.40 mm from the beginning

Hello

You can also use the winding and selection tracer function instead of waffle or unwaffle.

Normally with all the answers you should find what you are looking for.

Hello

You can also use the winding and selection tracer function instead of embossing or uncaffling.

on the other hand you  will be forced to have a closed outline

fabrice.demontthe winding function does not work on a non-planar surface.........

It works on a surface with an axis of revolution.......

See here

attached files in SW 2012

This is one example among many others

The faces are not flat I created a sketch that I projected 

A profile sketch

and via the Material Removal tool create this removal

If you haven't understood it yet, give us + info

Hello, @fabrice.demont,

I'm responding to a topic that's dated, but I was passing by pure chance while looking for something else... Out of curiosity because it might interest me, I don't understand your method for winding on a non-flat surface with the axis. Do you have a file for example?

Thank you. Cdt.

Thank you for your awesome answers! My problem is finally solved thanks to you guys! get-9apps.com cartoonhd
