Area of Projected sketch - Unable to determine
I am unable to find the area of this projected Body.
Not surprising.
Divide and Conquer, draw a temporary line across an area like this bottom right corner. There is a hole in the middle triangle.
Good luck....
I see lots of duplicate geometry in this sketch (splines on top of splines, etc), and a few disconnected endpoints.
By eliminating these in the lower portion of the sketch, and by combining some white dots (no coincident constraint), I was able to get the profile to be partially recognized:
but, I didn't have the time or patience to fix the entire sketch.
I wonder if projecting the whole body is really what you want. This will easily create a lot of "extra" curves from parts of the body which have the same silhouette curve. If I do a projection of the intersection with the body, I get a much better result. Still some issues to be cleaned up, but I was able to make it work:
model is attached (including my half-fixed original sketch)

Must have been one of my first forum questions - Project > Intersect a body and no profile.
Might help….
well, this is a VERY hard geometry problem to solve. Silhouette edge projection of a complex body can result in a LOT of curves being projected. That said, we are working on this. I expect improvement, but never 100% success.
