    Is there some known reason that you can't use the move/copy/rotate tools on
    sketch entities inside a HW sketch? You can't even Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V to speed
    things up.

    Wayne,

    I can seem to Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V in both the 2D and 3D sketches of HW (SW2006,
    sp5.0), as well as all other sketches.

    But I do know that move/copy/rotate tools are "greyed out" when in 3D sketch
    mode in general.

    Is not the reason that they (move/copy/rotate tools) are only 2D functions?
    They seem to have only Delta X & Delta Y, i.e. no Delta Z, so... thus 2D
    only.

    The Property Manager for 3D Sketches can manipulate the properties in 3D of
    course, so I would speculate that is how SW wishes us to edit/interact with
    them, instead of using the typical move/copy/rotate tools.

    My best guess,

    Aron
