Convert Drawing to Sketch

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have a drawing that is one sided (2D). I'm  trying to make the drawing 3d by extruding some parts of the drawing. Unfortunately the drawing isn't a sketch. So how can I convert a drawing to a sketch, so that I can extrude some parts of it? See attached image below. Thanks.

Hello, welcome to the forum. A possible way would be to export your drawing to dwg and then create a new part, create a new sketch and import the previously created dwg here.

I hope it helps to solve your problem, greetings!

Hi! Sergio shows a good workflow by exporting the drawing to AutoCAD dwg file and then import it back. Another way is to edit the Sketch Symbol and copy the sketch geometry and paste it to a part sketch.

Many thanks!
