- Selecting a feature twice deselects that feature.
- You can create a measure path as you create a feature, just as
you can with a specific feature definition, by checking the Create
Measure box.
- If you check Show Define or Show Measure, you can see the
Define or Measure dialog box for each feature. (The Show Measure
box is enabled only when you select Create Measure.)
- If the first feature is a surface, you can select any feature
thereafter.
- The features do not have to be on the same part (e.g., the
cylinder formed by a part and its cap can be defined).
- The features do not have to be congruent (see below).
- Although this example shows selecting geometry, you can also
use this command to select tolerances instead.
- When you select geometry, you can only select recognized
geometry. For instance, a curve in circle shape, or two
surfaces looking like a cylindrical element will not be
recognized.
- If you are in Single feature mode, you can use the pulldown
menu and select Point instead of Generic.

-
Select a single feature or select multiple similar
features on the geometry (e.g., a cylinders).
-
Select the Apply button; the feature appears on the
geometry.
-
Select Done to complete the define feature activity
creation.
