I am looking for a little bit of help using a graph to control a dimension in a sweep. I seem to have it realted to the graph, however there does not seem to much effect. I think my graph could be wrong.
First create a graph feature, named ie. "graph1". The graph curve should be sketched in a range of x values from zero to 1 or any real number, ie. 35.
Dimension the graph curve to control its shape and range.
Exit the graph environment and create a variable section sweep feature.
Sketch the profile and create needed dimensions.
if you want to control dimension sd1 in sketch, select menu: sketch / relations and write down this formula:
sd1=evalgraph(graph1,trajpar*35).
I am not sure of correct syntax - I am not running Proe now - use Proe help to check syntax.
Trajpar is variable that is changing from 0 to 1 along sweep trajectory. Evalgraph is computing y-value of graph curve (firtst parameter is name of graph feature, the second one is value of x-coord which y-value is computing from graph for).
