ok here's my issue:
I have a lot of tapered bosses on a plate. and I need to extrude from there top surface strait up rather than continuing with the taper. "think a block of chocolate"
so I could go back and remake the part so that it has the shape I want. in this case that wont work
but instead I go into sketch and project the boarders of the bosses to give me the projection lines.
project -> loop ->
click a face -> (that's 1 done)
click a face -> click next -> ( that's 2 )
click a face -> click next ->click next -> (3)
click a face -> click next ->click next ->click next -> ( 4)
see where I'm going with this.
its a really slow way of doing it,
surely there must be a way to go project and then go , this face , this face , this face , this face , this face , this face, done
projected lines selected
extrude
or a project everything on this surface button
if I can do it in other cad packages i.e. solid works or inventor and its pretty standard then why isn't it in Creo.
am i missing a secret command or is there just no way to do this?
note: in this instance ref pattern isn't an option as this block is cut from another part, and its too simple to program something in relations as that would be a waste of time as well.
