The trick is CTRL-C to copy the geometry and CTRL-V to paste it - this brings you to the composite curve feature. I don't know of another way to get there.

I am intrigued with the suggestion put out by Antonius and will try it out the next time I am able. It looks very promising and more stable and easier to create...

Deepak -

There may be another way to do this - what I will show you will seem very awkward and strange... But it works.

Attached is a video - quicker for me than typing. Please let me know if you have questions.

Hope this helps!

Creo uses datum references to create intent curves. You select curves and make them into a single reference feature by doing this.

I know there use to be other methods, but this one is probably the current direction PTC is heading with this type of feature.

Interesting, I never noticed that feature before. Thanks Antonius!

I was going to suggest setting the filter to "Geometry", selecting one curve, then doing a ctrl-c then ctrl-v to cut & paste, then use the "Details" to select either single entities, or go rule-based, etc.


Is there an advantage to using a reference feature as opposed to a copy?

It is a very easy way to pick references -and- modify references for subsequent features.

Greater use of this feature would help solve a lot of failures when references are deleted.

Yup, I've found the rules-based selection very helpful when projecting or wrapping curves onto surfaces. I just use the "All curves in feature" or "All solid surfaces" options.

Thanks a lot..

i got this new procedure for composite curve...
