Creo Parametric - Variable Section Sweeps (Part 4 - Evalgraph and Datum Graphs)

This Creo Parametric tutorial video shows you how to incorporate Datum Graphs with the "evalgraph" function and "trajpar" parameter in Relations to control dimensions in your Variable Section Sweep.

can you use the graph feature to manipulate an extrude rather than a sweep?

[@CADPLMGuy]

Yes. But Extrude features don't have a trajpar parameter. You can extract a single value from a graph for the Extrude's depth, thickness, or a sketch dimension, but that's it. You can't change the shape of the Extrude feature with a graph like you can for a Sweep.

[@GullNoor]

in the first example if we use the sketch you created in the graph as a second trajectory, we get the same result. Whats the advantage of a graph then?

I was showing there’s more than one way to skin a cat.
