Hello there
I have a question regarding the “Part designer” functionality. I would like to know if it is possible to export a lens design from sequential mode into the Part designer. It seems to me that is only possible with the Premium Edition but I have not found examples of this is done.
Any help will be welcome,
Kind regards.
Diego

Hi Diego,
From what I remember, it is not possible to import a lens directly into the Part Designer, even with the Premium Edition. What the Premium Edition allows you to do is expose a dimension of your designed part for optimization.
If you want to export a lens, it would have to be a CAD I’m affraid.
What are you looking to achieve?
Take care,
David
Hello David,
Thank you for the reply.
I was trying to design an extruded plastic lens so I needed to add some features to the profile of the lens.
I thought that by putting the lens in the Part Designer I could add the extra features.
Kind regards.

Hi Diego,
Why don’t you simply add another surface to your lens? What kind of features are you looking for? Have a look at the Grid Sag surface, it might give you some ideas.
Take care,
David
