Relations to sketch entities in other sketches?

Relations to sketch entities in other sketches?

(OP)
Is it possible to make a relation to a sketch entity in another sketch?

For example, in part view, can I start an axis from the center of a circle if the circle doesn't have corresponding solid feature geometry. This might be the case if the circle is a construction line or if I haven't yet made it into a solid.

RE: Relations to sketch entities in other sketches?

In your feature tree, open the feature to get to the sketch you want to relate to, right-click, and select 'show'.

Now you can relate entities(including centerpoints) in a new sketch to the existing sketch.

Yeah!
