Convert GSD spline to Part sketch

Hello,

I used the GSD_PointSplineLoftFromExcel file to create a spline. It has imported into the part as a "GeometricalFromExcel" Object.

I can't move or edit the points or spline that were generated. My desire is to move this spline around as you would any line that you create in a Part sketch. I eventually will join this spline with other lines to create a bell. I do not want to create a wire-frame; which i understand is what GSD is used for?

Attached is a picture of what the specification tree looks like.

Thanks for the help,

Bob

Isolate the points and you should be able to move them as you wish. (Right click and Isolate)

I isolated the spline but was not permitted to move it.

drop the compass on the isolated geometry, when it turns green use it to move the object(s).
