Problems creating a bent component lead in a package

Hi,

I'm trying to create a custom leaded component.  It has a bunch of leads bent at various angles, including one that has an "S" shape to it.  All the rest a simple "L" bends.

I was able to create the "L" bend leads by drawing a simple L shaped sketch and then filleting the corner, then doing a 3D sweep of a circular profile.

However, when I try and follow a similar workflow for the "S" bend lead, I keep getting errors saying it can't do the sweep profile.  Refer to the attached screen shot.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here??

Cheers,

Mike

Hi @Red_Ant_Engineering , it's hard to tell what is wrong from the image. Was the path curve a 3D control point spline? What is the point on the circle?

It will be helpful if you can  share your f3d file.
