Can we select non-planer surface as sketch plane?

[devisingh]

Hello all,

I want to sketch on curved surface is it possible to sketch on non planer surface in CATIA workbench?
Thanks.

No, you cannot create sketch on curved surface, firstly you have to create tangent plane on curved surface and then project the sketch on the curved surface. it works.
Thanks

Hi
This is Siddesh,
with the help of point and tangent plane to that surface we can create a sketch on that plane and then we can project that sketch on this non-planer surface, finally this sketched profile is obtained on surface.

Hi
This is Javed,
it is not possible but with the tangent plane on surface, we can project a sketch easily on it.
