Snap on solid not working

Post by Msegade »

I'm trying to make a complete wing in FreeCAD (skin, spars, ribs and stringers), I generetated the skin with an offset of the loft between the wing sections (airfoils).

Now I want to start with the spars (longitudinal stiffeners), but I need to snap to the wing skin, to get the correct size. The problem is that the tool for creating and edged link to external geometry doesn't work. How can I solve this?

Thanks
