Applies To

All Pro/ENGINEER versions

Description

  • This occurs when trying to use boundaries of a feature created with the menu >Insert >Helical SweepProtrusion/Thin Protrusion/Cut/Thin Cut or Surface
  • Selection of the whole curve using the boundaries of the surface generated with above command requires multiple selections to get the global geometry
  • This causes curve being incomplete or generates a failure due to missing reference(s) upon modification of dimensions within the helical feature
