Description[edit | edit source]
The Curves CurveOnSurface tool projects a curve on a face and optionally creates a normal or binormal face.
Usage[edit | edit source]
- Select a curve and a support face.
- There are several ways to invoke the tool:
- Press the
CurveOnSurface button.
- Select the Curves →
CurveOnSurface option from the menu.
- Press the
- A CurveOnSurface object is created.
- Optionally edit the values in the Property editor to add a normal or binormal face and adjust the related properties (see Properties below).
Properties[edit | edit source]

A CurveOnSurface object is derived from a Part Feature object and inherits all its properties. It also has the following additional properties:
Data[edit | edit source]
Curve On Surface
- DataClosed (
Bool): Close the curve. - DataFace (
LinkSub): Support face. - DataFace Width (
Distance): Width of the output face. - DataInput Edge (
LinkSub): Input edge. - DataOutput (
Enumeration): Output type.Curve only(default): Only a curve projected on the selected face is createdNormal face: A curve, and a face along the curve and also normal to the selected face is created.Binormal face: A curve and a face along the curve and also tangent to the selected face is created.
- DataReverse (
Bool): Reverses the parametric orientation of the curve. - DataSamples (
Integer): Number of samples. - DataSymmetric (
Bool): Face symmetric across curve. - DataTolerance (
Float): Tolerance.
Orientation
- DataReverse Binormal (
Bool): Reverse binormal. - DataReverse Normal (
Bool): Reverse normal. - DataReverse Tangent (
Bool): Reverse tangent.
