Description
This problem was posted on Reddit, where Solidworks will not create a swept helix with an equal pitch between revolutions, when a helix is created around a spiral. I've also tried creating a swept helix along a spline and it has the same issue. This video covers one way around the problem, which is to split the sweep path into equal length segments, using the sketch segment tool.
