Example - Adding a Route Line

In this example, a route line is added between a pin and a hole in a shaft in an exploded view.

To add a route line:

  1. Select one face, circular edge, or straight edge on each of the two items you want to connect.

    For example, select the face of the hole and the circular edge of the pin:


    explode_sketch_route_2.gif

    A preview of the route line appears.


    explode_sketch_route_3.gif

  2. Click PM_OK.gif.

    The route line appears.


    explode_sketch_route_4.gif

    The Route Line tool stays active so you can insert multiple lines.

    All lines in an explode line sketch appear in phantom font.

  3. Add more route lines, or click PM_OK.gif again to close the PropertyManager.
