Move sketch to another plane

John Sutherland Sep 27, 2010 2:46 AM

I have a fully defined sketch on the Front plane but I want it on the Right plane.

How can I move or copy it so that it is fully defined on the other plane?

if you right click your sketch in your fmt, and choose the little plane symbol and click again you can delete the front plane and select the right plane.

  Thanks Greg,
  
  You must have written that from memory.
  
  The symbol is Edit Sketch Plane.

      I will clarify this for the benefit of those following.
      
      If an existing Fully Defined sketch is in the wrong plane, then:-
          Exit sketch
          FM>RC on sketch>LC on edit sketch plane, PM pops up
          FM>LC on required plane, PM changes
          PM>OK
          FM>LC on required plane>LC normal to

        HELP. The property of sketch entity get confusing when you change plane. The previously vertical lines will still be called vertical eventhough it was horizontally drawn. The coordinates of points get confusing too. Negative can be postive and vice versa.
