Creating Smooth Curve between two existing sketched entities in Autodesk Inventor


In Autodesk Inventor, you can create a smooth (G2) continuous curve between two existing curves. The existing curves can be arcs, lines, splines, or projected curves. To create a smooth curve, choose the Bridge Curve tool from the Draw panel of the Sketch tab,  you will be prompted to select the curves one after the other. Select the two curves; a smooth G2 continuous curve, known as bridge curve, will be created between the selected curves. The profile of the bridge curve depends on the position of the points selected on the existing curves. Figure shows two points selected on the two curves and the resulting bridge curve.
