Sketch can not be closed correctly

Post by Uriel Rojo Martinez »

Hello, everyone I'm working in a macro to generate lattice structures, one of the shapes that I'm working is this one: (Tetra-Chiral)

The macro can adjust the chiral length, radio of circle and weight of shape. I'm in the final steps to get the sketch ready,

but when I'm trying to close it, the sketch turns in wrong shapes, like this:

I can't figure out how to close it and get a correct sketch, I am willing to spend time to learn and I would be glad if someone can point me in the right direction.
Thank you for your time.

Re: Sketch can not be closed correctly

How about
- placing the center of the arcs in the center of the coordinate system
- make the ends of the arc coincident with the ends of the adjacent straight lines?

This consumes 6 DOF while adding such an arc adds only 5. Thus your Sketch would be overconstrained. You have to remove - or better not generate it - the point-on-object constraint.
If you still get the arc the wrong way round, you can try to switch the sequence of attachments, i.e. swap the ends.
A Sketcher Lecture with in-depth information is available in English, auf Deutsch, en français, en español.

Very helpful, thanks!

I would not try to generate a sketch in a makro, but generate the profile directly with Part lines and arcs and make a Part wire from it. As you can calculate all vertexes in the macro, you do not need the sketcher solver at all.
