Revolve Question 2

[cygnas]

I made a simple 2d contour sketch (front plane) and tried to revolve around the centerline contained in the same sketch. Usually as soon as I choose revolve, it automatically picks the contour and gives me a preview. This time it did not. I actually had to place my arrow over the "inside" of the sketch and it highlighted and I was able to make the revolve. For some reason SW also changed my sketch to a 3D sketch from 2D.

Why does this happen?

Thanks

When I do a Check Sketch for feature I see "Sketch contains an entity with unsuitable geometry" and it highlights the entity. It's the first line creating the tooth coming from the right.

I deleted and replaced the line - point to point.

Done a check sketch for feature - no problems found

Done the base revolve (didn't pre-select anything) and the file revolved without and a problem.

I will give that check sketch for feature another try.
Thanks Scott.
