Splitting parts
Splitting parts
(OP)
Hello everyone
If I am splitting a part by creating a sketch on the original part and then splitting the part along that sketch, I run into 2 issues:
1. The sketch cuts through all. What if I want to cut through only certain distance?
2. Is the new part created linked to the sketch geometry, i.e. if I change the sketch geometry, will the new part automatically update?
Thanks for the help.

RE: Splitting parts
When you're done - you should have a milti-body part - still one part.
Are you using the split feature? I'm not too familiar with that one - but I'll study-up on it if that's what you're doing.
