project a face from another component

[LuiVerde]

hello to all I am a beginner on inventor, reading the last book of pruners I read that I can project a face of one part even on another component not necessarily perpendicular to the projected face (in a set)? ? I can't find the way to do it, project geometry only selects the lines the bows etc. but not the whole face, and project them perpendicular to the plan of the sketch. Some good soul can help me

thanks (I can also attach the example file included in the book )

if you approach the mouse arrow to the lines etc. project those, if you hold yourself in the center of the face (it is evidenced) project the latter.

the projection is however perpendicular to the sketch plan you have chosen. Hi.

the projection will always be perpendicular to the plan on which you are doing the sketch.
face the whole projector by selecting an area any mail inside it.
It's very simple.
If you can't, you're probably leaving a few steps.
However (I ) recommend you to use as little as possible the projection of external references to the piece you are working.
the adactivity is comfortable but, in my opinion, it is much better to have the workpiece positioned with coherent planes with its geometry, which with the creation of pieces " leaned " to others is practically impossible.
I prefer to measure the references and adapt the piece to the detected quotas.
you also realize that adactivity is a close link between the piece that provides the reference and what uses it, this means that the piece "son " cannot exist without the "father " unless interrupting the connection, with everything that follows.
I use inventor from rel. 5.3 and adaptive pieces in my archive I will have 3 and only because I made them by mistake and I did not remember to modify them.

Bye.

Well, what you have suggested is the reality I knew until yesterday, but I invite you to take a look at the annex and the cases are two or I have been incitruded (and it is possible) or there is some strange procedure to do what is rappres. in the book?
hello and thanks anyway

ah I forgot use inventor 2011 and the book of pruners is reported to the 2011 version

I am sorry but I do not understand the problem, the example of pruners seems quite clear to me. the lid is positioned crooked to make understand how the projection also happens between non parallel planes, if you turn off the adactivity and positions, through the constraints, the cover in axis with the box reactivating the adactivity this will perfectly match the two profiles.

My interpretation was that one could project a face of a component placed in space 3d without any relation of position, in the plan of my skizzo, in fact in the book says "a particularity of the command is that the plan of skizzo should not, necessarily (see also the image of the book )
then it had to specify that in the specific case the result would be the projection not of the precise face but of projections of the perpendicular edges to the plane.
There is no problem, I was just trying to figure out if it was possible because of my personal interpretation of the book.
hi and good work at all
