Creating a Curve from Equations

Curve from Equations lets you create a parametric curve from three Cartesian equations.

Before you begin: Create a Generative Shape Design Law feature. Make sure the Relations and Parameters options are selected in the Infrastructure > 3D Shape Infrastructure > Display tab.
  1. Click the X box and select an existing law (from the tree, for example) to compute the X component of the curve.
  2. Optional: To create a new law, Right-click the X box and select Insert Law > Create Law or select Insert Law > Create Engineering Law.

    For more information, refer to Creating Laws.

  3. Compute the Y and Z components of the curve by selecting or creating the laws.
  4. Click OK to create the parametric curve.
    Note: The OK and Preview buttons are available only after the three laws are evaluated.
