Projected geometry and constraints

[Anonymous]

I am trying to constrain a circle in a new sketch to an existing part. The
part has a rounded edge so I am trying to constrain the circle using the
concentric constraint. I can't pick the edge of the rounded edge directly as
the part is not "flat" in this plane, so I am trying to project the geometry
of the filleted edge and then use the concentric constraint on the projected
geometry. I still can't pick the projected geometry (arc) to apply the
concentric constraint. Any suggetions?

TIA

Your projected geometry is not a true circle?
Apply a dimension to it, it might not stick as it is reference but it will
preview, if not tuff its a spline / curve etc..
Project something more useful like the centre of the radiused part etc, etc.
