Satan has taken over my SW2004

OK, anybody want to take a stab at this one?

Thanks,

However, going from the pther direction works OK!??

Yup. A pierce point with the CompCurve.

 

Thanks Dale.
Well, like I said, sarting from the other end wasn't a problem.

So it really doesn't matter now. If I get a chance later I'll see if I can
figure out what went wrong.

I can't believe I remembered this post...

Too bad the image is no longer there. But it looked very
similar.

Yep, I didn't want to get on a neg bandwagon but.. anyhow..

Muggs, because it is a composite curve it sometimes has this problem so,
as a workaround, do a 3DSketch copy edge and it should work? Otherwise,
yes, sometimes with that problem, the other end works as you have shown.

SW has been able to do that since 96.

Sometimes when you do what Paul Salvador suggests (and it isn't a bad idea)
you will find that the sketch rotates at each change of underlying curve.

It would be interesting if, in 2005 you tried fix edges or fix curves on the
sweep sketch (if that will even work).
