• Closed as program error.

Error description

• SKETCHER: SILHOUETTE EDGES PROJECTION ON
  TO THE SKETCH PLANE FAILED FOR THE SELECTED
  SURFACES.
  .
  SCENARIO.
  1. Start CATIA V5R16SP02. Workbench- Part
  Design.
  2. File/Open Part1.CATPart
  2. YZ plane is chosen.
  3 Select Sketcher icon .
  4. Select Project 3D Silhouette Edges icon
  5. Face created by chamfer is selected. The error
  message is displayed.
  Error- Silhouette edges projection on to the sketch
  plane failed: the selected surfaces cannot be
  projected.
  .
  .
  EXPECTED RESULT.
  The selected surface should be projected on the
  sketcher plane.

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON CATIA VERSION
  5 RELEASE 19 GA level.
  .
  Incident Diagnosis.
  Silhouette edges projection on to the sketch plane
  failed for faces like chamfer.
  .
  Correction Explanation.
  Chamfer faces are now identified by the algorithm
  and can be projected.
  .
  Additional Information.
  Note this problem will also be fixed on V5R18SP02
  level.
