Hello All,

Is there any option/workbench to create multiple isoparametric on the surface with one click?

In some cad systems you can select the surface and specify the no. of the curves along U or V direction and result is any no. of curves in one shot.

Right now I dont see this as an option in "Isoparametrc Curve" under GSD workbench.

Thanks

No, I thought maybe a powercopy with parallel curve but I dont think the results are what you are looking for. An ISO curve will hit the boundaries of a surface where the parallel curve may stop short from the edge if the surface was pie shaped. Check out the curve on a surface if you have the freestyle license. You can specify the number of UV lines and draw custom curves on a surface.

Regards,
Derek

There doesn't appeat to be a multi-option. But if you go the powercopy route you can do this.
1)Create a point on surface in the middle of your surface
2)Create an isoparm curve and pick the point. The curve will stay in the middle of the surface
3)Space points along the isoparm curve at the distances your require
4)Create Isoparms through each point. 90deg to the first isoparm
5)Make a powercopy of the points and curves.
