Hello, I was wondering if there is an easy way to generate anoutline of an assembly onto a planar surface to determine itsprojected surface area. For example, how would one determine thesurface area of an aircraft projected onto the front plane?

Insert - Curve - Split Line - Silhouette would be handy if it wouldproject the curves onto a plane instead of the surfaces of theassembly.

I can see manually creating and projecting hundreds of silhouettecurves onto a plane and trying to create a profile free of tinygaps to be quite a tedious chore.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
