- [Narrator] Here I want to talk about
entering and exiting the sketcher.
Yes, I want to make a separate video for this
because a lot of people get confused
once they exit out of the sketch.
What happens?
Now, CATIA is built off of many, many workbenches.
So here we're inside of the part design workbench.
If I enter into the sketcher.
You'll see here. Pick my plane.
Draw my sketch. Exit out.
As you've seen a few times, it enters to the sketcher,
comes out, and we're back into part design workbench.
But, as you go through and you work in CATIA,
more and more what might actually end up happening
is that you may be in a different workbench,
something like generative shape design.
Now, we're not going to talk about generative shape design.
Here, we want to talk about just what happens
within the sketcher.
If I come in and create another sketch,
within the generative shape design workbench,
and I exit out.
What you'll notice is that I'm inside
of the generative shape design workbench still.
The previous workbench you were in,
when you entered into the sketcher,
is what you're going to exit out into.
Just because you made the sketch in a different workbench,
technically speaking, it's still exactly the same sketch.
There's no difference.
All it was is using the same tool in a different workbench.
So here, if I were to switch back
into my part design workbench,
the workbench that we're going to be talking about heavily
here shortly, you'll see that the sketches are still there.
They're still in my body.
They're both free to be used
to create my part.
So when you enter in your sketcher workbench
and exit out, you're going to exit out into the workbench
that you entered in upon.
And if you are in a separate workbench,
or a different workbench, when you create the sketch,
you're still creating the exact same type of element.
So, don't get too confused.
A sketch is a sketch is a sketch.
And what you entered in on
is what you're going to exit out on.
