Widely used for creating curved mechanical slots and keyways.
Similarly, you can use other sketch tools to create more complex profiles.
Includes basic point creation, lines, and infinite lines (useful for construction).

When working inside a complex 3D assembly or a deep part, material often blocks your sketch view. The tool visually slices away any 3D geometry in front of your current sketch plane. This gives you a clear, unobstructed cross-sectional view without modifying the actual 3D model. Visual Analysis Tools

Once a basic profile is drawn, these tools allow you to refine or duplicate it. Widely used for creating curved mechanical slots and keyways
Delete redundant dimensions or switch them to "Reference" mode. Lines won't snap to axes "Snap to Point" or "Geometrical Constraints" is turned off.
Automatically adds length or angle dimensions to your sketch elements.
The is your primary toolkit for generating 2D geometry. It contains pre-defined shapes and custom line tools. Profile Tool I can tailor the next steps directly to
CATIA V5 provides a wide array of tools to draw geometry, organized in the toolbar.
Generates a regular six-sided polygon from a center point and a radius definition. Circles and Arcs Circle: Defined by a center point and a perimeter point.
: Critical for defining the exact size and position of your geometry. Constraint
Sketcher Workbench in CATIA V5 is the foundation for creating 2D profiles that are later transformed into 3D solid models. This guide covers the essential toolbars and settings used to define precise, fully-constrained geometry. 1. Primary Toolbars
: Automatically generates numeric dimensions as you sketch profiles. 6. Diagnostic and Quality Control Tools
