3D sketch on a drawing

Hello,

How can I displaya 3D sketch on a drawing, but not above the view ?

 

The 3D model : the array is a 3d sketch

The obtained drawing : the sketch is always above the view, like if drawn on the sheet :

The drawing needed :

Any ideas welcome, if needed I'll create an Idea

Hi,

 

Thanks for sharing the file.

 

How have you managed to get the sketches showing on your drawing? "Get model sketches" only works (as far as I know) on part drawings and not on assembly drawings.

 

When I project views, the plate is positioned correctly, but I'm unable to get the grid sketch to show...

I couldn't find any way to achieve what you want, either in 2016 (the version of the files you posted) or in 2018.

Hi! I can reproduce the behavior. Indeed, model 2D/3D sketch can be retrieved in the drawing view. But, it does act like an overlay on top of a model view. Model sketch geometry does not participate in hidden line compute. As a result, it appears on top of the view.

Many thanks!

Hi @TONELLAL,

 

Could you create the part called Pièce1 as a single 60x65 rectangle and then use the Rectangular pattern to create the larger grid, but do this as separate solid bodies?

 

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis

An idea yes... but :

-this mean to create an assembly instead of a part

-more boring, the sketch need to be an array. On real models, I have nothing regular

 

In the same theme I can create split features, but in a split I can use only 1 line. In my sketch I have dozens...

So, I note there is no solution to display a sketch on the 3D model and not directly on the sheet. This will be reported on Inventor Idea.

 

The easiest workaround I found is to create a "snake sketch" and use it to split the face : 2018-04-12_11h29_47.png
