External geometry,

[Irwin]

I would like to know: How can I create a part with external features? I would create a sketch in a part and I would like to use this sketch in another part trough an assembly. How can I do that?
(I would like to know: is it possible to do something similar like the publish or copy geometry command in PROE? And How?) Please write me step by step!

Best regards,

Irwin

Edit the part at the assembly stage.

RMB\Edit part -then you can pick other edges\faces etc... to make In-context Geometry.

Beware of what you are doing because can get out of control quickly.
