Hi,

I am trying to make propeller blade in Creo 2.0 using surface and variable section sweep ,but i am not able to apply the pitch to the blade ,it's just coming along the same plane(flat propeller without pitch),it needs to have a twist(pitch), please make a video on how to do it or just give me some suggestions.

I think the problem is that when i draw two lines for the variable section sweep ,i draw them on the same plane but in order to get the pitch ,i need to draw them in such a way that they are not restricted to just one plane ,i don't know how to draw the lines that stretch from one plane to another(parallel) plane ,i.e i need to draw the lines in 3 dimensional space ,how to draw it?

In the VSS, are you using a trajpar or evalgraph statements to change the pitch along the trajectory?

Often times people do have sketch constrains that conflict with the variable parameters in their section. In that case, the feature reverts to non-variable.
