Creating a surfaces that is from 2 distant surfaces

If you want to get an edge instead of a sketch, the easiest optionis to right click on the sketch and "Hide" it. Another option is to right click on the sketch in the viewingarea, and "select other".  A list will come up ofobjects that are underneath the cursor.

If you still get an entire sketch, instead of just one segment, youhave a different problem.  Then you right click and choose"Selection Manager".  I suggest reading thesolidworks help file on how that works.  Basically it givesyou options of either selecting just one line segment, a loop, or acontinuous segment.

Good luck!

Rick,

The solution is to use the Fill surface because your design calls for filling an area that is not a regular 4 sided case, but rather 5 sided. The Fill I created for your design is a combination of C0 (contact) and C1 (tangent) boundaries, based on your intent.

The trick to making fill work well is to assign tangency to as many boundaries that your design intent allows for; by doing this, the tangent boundaries of the fill better control the "flow" and "fairness" of the fill surface.

You'll notice that what I did in your part is created 3 extruded surfaces to control the fill. If you rollback to the fill surface and show all the surface bodies in your surface folder, I think this will answer your question.

Of course, the way I introduced this solution to your current part is a hack, and you should rebuild your part to add or eliminate extraneous features.
