Question
Draft to sketch?
I have a top view of a component, that I want to show in a P&ID drawing. All I want is a 2D sketch since everything else is 2D.
I opened up the part, made a drawing with the top view I want, and converted the view to draft entities. I can select the sketch mode in the drawing and copy the draft entities, but can't seem to use them in a sketch for curves in a part.
Is there a way to do this?
What I want to end up with is a set of parametric curve entities that I can manipulate as needed.
I'd rather not do this as draft entities in a drawing.
This is what the item looks like.

I know it's simple enough to sketch, but I was hoping for an easier method.
