Objectives
Create four-boundary surfaces with internal curves.

Create radial path planar curves.

Modify and control the shape of a style surface using internal curves.

Scenario
You are tasked with designing a shoe part. You create boundary surfaces to design the basic form of the shoe part and modify the form using radial path planar curves as
internal curves.

Task 1. Examine the surface patches on the model and experiment with directly creating a COS type curve.

1. Disable all Datum Display types.

2. Select each of the surface patches, as shown.


The contoured surface of the shoe is defined by multiple surface patches.

Figure 1

3. In the ribbon, click Style from the Surfaces group.

4. Select Preferences from the Operations group drop-down menu.


Clear the Display Grid check box.

Click OK.

5. Right-click and select Curve.

Select Curve on Surface from the dashboard.

In the In Graphics toolbar, select No Hidden from the Display Style drop-down menu.

Click to locate the right-most endpoint, as shown.

Moving left, click points on the surface to create the curve.

Attempt to locate the endpoint on the front surface patch of the model.
