Aside from Along Vector, what is the other type of creation method in the Helix command?

In the context of the Helix command in Siemens NX, the creation methods determine how the helical path is defined. The Along Vector method allows for creating a helix by specifying a direction and a pitch. The other method available, Along Spine, is essential because it allows users to create a helical feature along a pre-defined spline curve or path. This flexibility is beneficial when designing complex shapes that require a helix to follow a specific curvature that is not aligned with traditional linear dimensions.

Utilizing the Along Spine method can significantly enhance the design process by integrating the helix with other complex geometries more smoothly, thus providing designers with better control over their designs. This method is particularly useful in applications such as thread creation, coil design, and any scenario where the helix should follow a non-linear path.
