Alibre Design 3D-Path Creation Video
My Answer

Sorry - I haven't got that Video Created or posted yet

When I have - this page will be replaced by the next Flash Video with the details.

In the mean time - here is what I do - Create a Series of lines at regular intervals, and extend them to the 2D curves in each sketch, and use ordinate dimension to measure from the first intersecting point, to the last, ending up with X,Y, and Z measurements.

These X,Y, and Z Measurements I enter into an excel spreadsheet with only one page (Delete the extras), and save them as a csv file to import into Alibre Design - Sweep - Path (Import File)

The Ordinate Dims The CSV File
