| Summary | 0002862: Check for shape type before using selection as base feature |
|---|
| Description | In the new PartDesign workflow, a shape can be imported as base feature into a new Body.
But the function does not seem to check for body type. Adding a sketch to a new body makes it a base feature and prevents it from being used directly for PartDesign features and even results in a crash.
There are many ways the end user may want to import a sketch made independently from PartDesign. Selecting it then creating a new Body seems intuitive to the end user. |
|---|
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Switch to the Sketcher and create a new sketch, add some geometry and close it.
2. Switch to the PartDesign workbench
3. Select the Sketch and click on "Create new body"
4. With the Sketch still selected, click on "Pad a selected sketch"
5. A dialog opens saying "You selected geometries which are not part of the active body. Please define how to handle those selections. If you do not want those references cancel the command."
6. Choosing either "Making independent copy (recommended)" or "Make dependent copy" results in an instant crash. "Create cross-reference" succeeds. |

The crash may be a different issue.
My suggestion is the following method for importing a sketch into a new Body:
1. Select sketch
2. Create new Body
3. The "Select feature" dialog opens in the Tasks panel to select the plane to attach the sketch to. |
