Because it’s easier to show the dimensions from the model a few FEATURES at a time. START the drawing early and have the drawing process be a parallel process with creating the PART. In other words, create a couple features, go to the drawing, show the dimensions from the FEATURE on the drawing, go back to the model, create a couple more features, show those dimensions on the drawing, etc.

Because by default, drawing VIEWS get their hidden line removal from the ENVIRONMENT. Each users environment may be DIFFERENT thus causing the drawing views to look different when another user opens the drawing.

Limit the number of parents. If multiple FEATURES are to be included in the udf, they should share as many parents as possible to reduce the number of PROMPTS required to place the udf into another PART.

When redefining a FEATURE that has a DEPENDENT COPY, the alignment function in the sketcher is not AVAILABLE.

When redefining a feature that has a dependent copy, the alignment function in the sketcher is not available.

DEPENDENT means that the COPY feature will change when the ORIGINAL feature is changed. INDEPENDENT means that the new feature will not change when you change the original feature.

Dependent means that the copy feature will change when the original feature is changed. Independent means that the new feature will not change when you change the original feature.

It is normally RECOMMENDED that beginners not use the ISOLATE FUNCTION in LAYER DISPLAY.

Save status PERMANENTLY SETS the layer displays status of the model so that when the model is saved and opened again the layer DISPLAY is still set that way.

Save status permanently sets the layer displays status of the model so that when the model is saved and opened again the layer display is still set that way.

To be sure that when CREATING a feature, you are using the datum PLANES in that part so that you don’t MAKE unwanted external REFERENCES (parent/child RELATIONSHIPS).

To be sure that when creating a feature, you are using the datum planes in that part so that you don’t make unwanted external references (parent/child relationships).

Using LAYERS, blank the layer CONTAINING the default datum planes, pick the plus SIGN next to that layer in the layer display dialog box and then pick the component that you WANT to see the planes in and then pick the show icon.

Three USES of DATUM axes are as follow - Dimension and alignment references, centerlines on DRAWINGS, geometric tolerancing, coaxial HOLE.

Five uses of datam PLANE are as follows - Sketching plane, reference plane, DIMENSION and alignment REFERENCES, geometric TOLERANCING, CREATING cross sections.

The datum plane CREATED on the fly MEANS it was created when you were in the middle of creating something else and it goes away after the THING you really wanted was created. These are created USING the 'make datum' command.

Parametric means driven by parameters. Feature BASED means you define a series of instructions (features) to tell the system your design INTENT. Modeling means creating computer images coupled with GEOMETRIC information defining a PART or assembly.

MODIFY > PICK the FEATURE > pick the dimension > enter the new value > select REGENERATE.

Modify > pick the feature > pick the dimension > enter the new value > select regenerate.

One-side extrudes only one specified DIRECTION from the SKETCHING PLANE. Both SIDES extrudes both sides of the sketching planes.

After performing a file save as COMMAND the CURRENT OBJECT is not a new object it is the OLD object.

Object reference is a data MANAGEMENT TERM that has to do with the way one object references another. Geometric associativity has to do with how a parts geometry can be changed from the PART or drawing.
