    Creating a curve by equation

    Hello, I agree with PeterGuy about associativity.The radius would suffer most changes for sure and a new involute is updated immediately. Thanks Kapitan for explanation and the links. Definitely you are the master of explanations. Regards Columb

    Creating a curve by equation

    Yes PeterGuy you mentioned before but I couldn't find this example first.I didn't expect to name this in doc "Creating a Parameterized Curve". Anyway I gave you a star. Regards, Columb

    Creating a curve by equation

    Hi again I'm stupid, I just realized the same method is in doc at: Creating a Parameterized Curve but has a strange name for a curve from equation. Regards Columb

    Creating a curve by equation

    Hi Finally I succeeded to make the involute in Catia. I did one law (law1)for the x formula: x=r(cos(t)+t*sin(t)) and than another law (law2)for the y formula y=r(sin(t)-t*cos(t)) Using parallel curve to apply the law to a line (with advanced option) and indicate the law#1 I created a curve in...

    Creating a curve by equation

    Yes it's true Itsmyjob ,the points are calculated in EXCEL and a spline through these points are made in CATIA.It'd be nice to have a function like 'spline/curve from equation' as UG or ProE has. I'm still thinking about the law procedure why I can't use 3 parameters... Columb

    Creating a curve by equation

    Thanks PeterGuy for replay but the fog-law works with two parameters only, I have 3 parameters: x,y and angle t. I'll try what Kapitan said. Thanks Kapitan for your answer.It looks great. Columb

    Creating a curve by equation

    Hello How should I create a curve by equation? The equation is the involute equation: x=r(cos(t)+t*sin(t)) y=r(sin(t)-t*cos(t)) r and t are known and I can get the points(x,y)but I need to draw the curve. Thanks Columb Columb
