Creating Features from sketchesCreating Features from sketches
Draw sketch I.e to produce the sketch at the time of creating the feature or
- NB Sketch will be lost if feature fails
Select from sketch I.e. select an existing sketch created earlier using the sketch tool
- NB The advantage of drawing a sketch in advance is that it will not be lost if the feature fails.
Most features are created using sketches as their basis: There are two basic methods:
