polygon with n sides in catia v5

Bye to all,

Maybe my question is a little banal:

How can I create a polygon formed by 'n' sides in the caty (obviously greater than 6)?

thanks in advance.:smile:

I believe that such a command does not exist. You have to build it. If someone forgets me, I learn something new. Greetings to all.
 
with a command only no, but not to make many constructions, you can create the first side of the polygon in a sketch (draw a triangle where you put as constraints the angle that interests you and the distance from the center, of course only the side must be in standard mode, the other lines as construction)
then using the circular matrix you create all the others (eye that if you need to use the polygon for an operation, you will first have to join it (with union)

Hi.
 
thanks for the answer gianni.

but by joining you mean Boolean operations? because using the assemble operation tells me that the body is not suitable for this operation.

Hi.
 
attached file with a possible solution
for the construction of a polygon n sides
inscribed in a circumference-
the addition of the integral parameter will allow you
to set the number of sides you want-
everything is parameterized, so changing
the radius of the circle, will be modified
length of individual sides and perimeter

Hi.
no, boolean are used for solids, in this case you only have curves, I'm talking about the "unisci" command of the generative shape design

menu/insertion/operation/unition

you can easily use the alpole file (to vary the number of clicks on full formula1 or use the knowledge inspector), then if you want to join the sides and use the range as you want.

Good alpole! !
