Snap between different sketches ?

Is there a way while drawing in a new sketch to snap to curves of a different sketch?

 

I seem not being able to figure that out.

First, make sure you have the option for 3D sketching of lines and spline checked in the Fusion 360 section of General preferences.

Then include the 3D geometry (including other sketch elements) with the "Include 3D Geometry" within the sketch commands.

You will then be able to snap to those sketch curves.

Hi there

Thank you for the information.

Two things I observed:

Snapping to 3d geometry when drawing works well.

However snapping does not work when I move a curve point. Sketches, 3d geometry and also the grid are ignored.

I can also not snap draw a curve to a profile in a different sketch object.
