Sketch into 2D drawing

Sketch into 2D drawing

Hello,

Is it possible to make a 2D drawing from a sketch?

It would be nice for making quick electrical or hydraulic plans without the need of multiple softwares.

The community has been asking for this for a while now.  At first the AD response was along the lines of "why would you want to do a stupid thing like like that??!!??!"

 

But recently There was a teaser comment from AD suggesting that we've been heard and that it would be in an update very soon.

If you just want a 2D drawing, why wouldn't you just do it in Drawing instead of subjecting yourself to the pain of using the sketcher?

Hello Noah_Katz,

 

It can be integrated into drawing instead, it is not a problem, but my thought was since sketcher has all the tools and constraints needed, why duplicate them, just use what we have already.

Oh, I see what you mean now.

 

Good idea 🙂

We are planning on releasing the support of sketch geometry in Drawing views by the end of the year.

Well if you are like me, you started in a model sketch because that's how you were trained ... then when I started doing a layout/drawing I realized about 3 hours later about the drawing option (sorry, never used it before) SO, that's a reason to convert from sketch to drawing and NOW I wasted 3 hours and have to start over again.... instead of copy/paste or import the sketch file.

Is this ever going to happen?

It is still on the roadmap, and we will get to it - as you can see on our roadmap we have a lot of work still to do in general on the Drawings workspace. Thanks for your patience.

Has this happened yet it's now more than half way through 2019 and I can't find a way to do it?

I too support this request. When converting a sketch to a drawing (which seems a perfectly reasonable request) the majority of lines are solid, with only a small number shown as dotted. So close, yet so far...and so very frustrating. Love to see this as a feature as was hoping to avoid having to get a new piece of software.
