hello every one, 

 

i m facing a small problem, i draw a trajectory with multiple lines, but i couldn't attach them. 

I would like at the end have a one line (continous trajectory). 

 

Thank you in advance

Hi!

 

The  COINCIDENT constraint is used to connect lines by selecting the endpoints of each line.

 

With the info you are giving, it's the only thing we can say.

If you're drawing a trajectory that is smooth, you can connect your line and arc segments using the TANGENT constraint. If two lines don't have an arc or spline between them, you can generate one and again apply tangent constraints to all.

If you're attempting to join two lines into a "polyline" as in AutoCAD, you cannot do this in Inventor. The best you may be able to do is use the CREATE BLOCK function to make a block out of the lines and use it by copying and pasting the block (expand your sketch in the browser area after creating the block to see your blocks).
