00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,720
In this lesson
you will learn how to project a sketch.
1

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,800
Create a sketch and you will find Project,
2

3
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:10,920
Keyboard Shortcut
P, in the create dropdown menu.
3

4
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,920
In the Contextual Sketch environment.
4

5
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:17,040
Project will bring geometry
5

6
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,080
from other parts of your project
onto your sketch plane.
6

7
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,680
You can reference faces, edges, points,
or bodies.
7

8
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,200
Let's make a projection
on this construction
8

9
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,960
plane with specified entities
as our selection filter.
9

10
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,720
The highlighted line shows geometry
that will be projected
10

11
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,720
onto your construction plane.
11

12
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,520
Delete your projected lines
and project again,
12

13
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:48,360
but with bodies as your selection filter,
We can't select a sketch this time,
13

14
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,440
but just hovering over
any part of the body is enough to project
14

15
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,440
the boundaries from the top surface
onto our active construction plane.
15

16
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,840
The specified entities selection
filter has a broader application
16

17
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,480
than the bodies selection filter,
since you can pick specific parts.
17

18
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:07,760
You can project
18

19
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,760
with or without a projection link.
19

20
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,400
You create a relationship
between your original sketch
20

21
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,400
and your projection
when you project with a link,
21

22
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,920
those projections are purple.
22

23
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,800
Change
the original sketch and your projection
23

24
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,800
automatically updates.
24

25
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,160
Make sure that you uncheck
25

26
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,400
projection link if you want to project
an independent sketch that doesn't update
26

27
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,920
when you make changes to the underlying
sketch used for the projection.
27

28
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,480
Unlinked projections are blue.
28

29
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:52,880
You will probably run
29

30
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,000
into a few scenarios when you create
a projection link, but realize later
30

31
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,240
that your projection link
doesn't support your design intention.
31

32
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,120
You don't want automatic updates
on your projected
32

33
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,320
sketch. Your linked projection is purple.
33

34
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,320
Select your sketch, right click and edit
34

35
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,400
and right click again
on your selection and select Break Link.
35

36
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:15,240
As you've seen,
36

37
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,000
Project is both a timesaver
and quality driver.
37

38
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,520
You can reuse and create
accurate sketch geometry,
38

39
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,480
and you can also save a lot of time
when you make changes to your design.
39

40
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,920
Good job following along.
40

41
00:02:28,920 --> 00:02:31,080
See you in the next lesson. Thank you.
