In CATIA version 6, the sweep is migrated as
a rib.
You have access to the model's geometry and specifications.
Therefore, you can now modify each feature of the new document.
The profile control option used is Reference surface
that is the default option used for migrating sweeps.
Now, if you prefer to sweep the profile using the Keep
angle option, you will obtain a rib.
To see an example of a sweep migrated using the Pulling
direction option
Perform the steps as described in the above scenario. You
obtain a rib.
The pulling direction used is Line.1, that is the highlighted
line in front of the part (see picture).
Now, if you prefer to sweep the profile using the Reference
surface option, you will obtain a rib.
The reference surface used is Plane.1, that is the blue plane.
