Sweep sketch Point to create line

Sweep sketch Point to create line

I have been using the Frame generator more lately and have struggled with a few things. On some of my designs, its easier to sketch the "CenterLine" of the elements and work with that.  My problem is there is no way to sweep the centerline along a path. I would like to be able to pick a point and give it a path and this would create a line along that path, then if the path changes, so does that swept line.

 

Currently we can only select "Geometry" to sweep, either as a solid or surface. If we could sweep these points, then in Frame Generator, this line could be selected to build the members from. I had rather use the centerline because many times, I do not know the shape/size of the member I am trying to place.

 

Thanks
