patterned drafted cut

Discussion in 'SolidWorks' started by rjahrsdoerfer, May 31, 2007.

  1. Created a cut through a part with a curved surface on part. Patterned
    the cut. Would like to add draft to the cut starting at the curved
    surface. Does not work if I add parting line draft to cut & then
    pattern. The draft only appears on the original cut. How can I
    accomplish this without adding parting line draft to every patterened
    cut?

    Thanks

    Are you using the draft tool? If so you can apply it to multiple
    surfaces. Just click on only the ones you want drafted.

    If you are using the drafted option in a cut-extrude... well, try
    using the draft tool!

  3. Yes, using draft tool but I was trying to avoid picking all those
    edges or surfaces.

    Have you tried checking the option "geometry pattern"?
    Otherwise, can you draft the surface at the parting line first, then
    do a cut and pattern?
