Dividing splines in points and export

[diego_molina]

Hello. 

I am new in inventor, I used to work in solidworks. I have a cylindrical surface with multiple faces *look image* and I am using project cut edges to get the splines. I need multiple coordinates of the splines, so I can draw the curve in MSFT Excel and make some calculations based on that. 

In solidworks, I used segment to get a lot of points of each spline, then used a macro to export the sketch points, I am trying to do the same in Invtor but I am not able to divide the lines. Any suggestions on what workflow should I follow? 

Thanks!

@Anonymous I tried making a rectangular pattern with the direction of a spline but the points are not coincident with it.

@JDMather I created the points but as work features, not in a sketch, any Idea of how can export that coordinates? Thanks!

Hi! There is an app to export points.
