Sketching the Profile

  1. Sketch and dimension the profile as shown.
  2. Click Sketch Fillet on the Sketch tab.
  3. In the PropertyManager:
    1. Set Radius to 30.
    2. Select Keep constrained corners so that the corner dimensions and relations are retained to a virtual intersection point.
  4. Select the endpoint of the 50mm vertical line that is coincident with the endpoint of the diagonal line, then click OK .
    The corner is filleted away.
  5. Click Zoom to Area on the Heads-up View toolbar and drag-select around the filleted intersection.
    The filleted corner is visible, as well as the virtual sharp of the two lines, indicated by the witness lines.

    A virtual sharp is the virtual intersection point of two entities. Dimensions and relations to the virtual intersection point are retained even though the actual intersection no longer exists.
  6. Click Zoom to Fit on the Heads-up View toolbar to return to a view of the entire sketch.
