Hello
I have an assembly with the CAD of a shoe mold (surface body) + the curve (3D sketch) of clipping this shoe.
I want to project this clipping curve onto my mold perpendicular to the surface of the mold.
So I'm in a 3D sketch projection configuration on a surface body.
I've been stuck for a while... Does anyone have any ideas? I'm on solid 2016
Thank you
I'm moving forward step by step in my project:
I have a lead. Is it possible to extrude a normal 3D sketch to a surface?
Hello Victor,
Use the "projected curve" function (pay attention to the direction of projection.)
Or use "dividing line" which separates a surface into several faces following a sketch.
If you are in surface, use the restrict function.
You choose your 3D sketch as an adjustment tool.
Edit: forgot my answer, I had misread your question. See daemoon's answer.
Hello
Why not extrude a surface from that sketch, you make it cross the surface you want to project it on, then you use the Restrict Surface function, then you can use the edges of that surface to project them into a 3D sketch if needed.
Look at this tutorial, towards the end I extrude text on a cylindrical surface and I use the delimitation function.

But it is not possible a priori to project a 3D sketch onto a surface...
This is my problem.
Thank you all the same for the answers
[EDIT]
Thank you a.leblanc. I can't extrude my sketch in a normal way on my surface...
Projecting a 3D sketch on a surface may not be possible, but projecting the edges of a surface bounded by another surface may be
You need to specify an orientation in the extrusion function, I think it can be a line, an axis, a plane or a flat surface.
Show us pictures, it's a thousand times more meaningful than words
A mold for me is volume
Now your clipping is in theory on your shoe so why project?
if it's to allow a demolding in the precise direction, it seems to me that you just have to make an offset of this 3D sketch
and to create a surface between these 2 3D sketches

There you go, my 3D sketch (in grey) comes from a "curve passing through the points X Y Z" that I adjusted in an assembly with the surface CAD of the mold of my shoe (in dark grey).
The mold file is from ProE so I can't do much with it.
The problem now is to project this curve in a normal way on the surface of the mold.
In your case I think the best thing is to create a surface inside this sketch
which you will enlarge and position in the desired place in an assembly
then you can recover the crossing line of the surfaces so your 3D curve
