Output feature usage

(OP)
Hi,
Could somone give me a meaning of using the Output Feature?

Thanks!

RE: Output feature usage

This will export geometry from a sketch for use in 3d.  example: export a point for the PD (part design) hole command.  This is more stable because you might lose the vertex it picks.  You can export the line to use as an extrude....

regards,
Derek


 

RE: Output feature usage

Someone told me recently, that the OUTPUT FEATURE was added to V5 to allow using construction geometry outside of the sketch.

That's not how I've used it in the past, but it does make sense.

Can anyone confirm this?
