Hello, 

I'm quite sure there used to be a 'curve' option where it states surface types.

How do i switch to show curves?

I need to construct a sinewave curve, but running circular..... 

[mg]

There are different menu paths to create a curve or surface using an equation.  See enclosed.

For making a circular sine wave, make a 3d surface then the 2d sin curve, then use the Prepare | Analysis | Wrap path for your 3d curve. (SC 2022R1)

Thanks maike

My 2022R2 screen is looking different to your R1 (i did reset to default, just to be sure)

No Equation tool in Sketch mode. Where did it go?

Hello Macsys Engineering maike

If you currently have the Constraint based sketching active, then the sketch equations tool will not be visible.

Go to File > SpaceClaim Options > Advanced and deactivate the "enable constraint-based sketching (restart required)" option. See attached screenshot for what I am referring to.

Once you do that you will see the Curve Types dropdown list in the Equations Options panel. 

Regards.

Thank you very much! Never would have found that!
