Parts Enhancements

Check out the newest enhancements to the Part Environment.

Mark Feature Enhancements

When starting the Mark feature command, if an unconsumed sketch does not exist, the feature workflow activates the Sketch environment and prompts you for a face on which to place the mark, thereby streamlining the workflow.

The Mark feature property panel breadcrumb updates, adding the sketch, to allow you to edit the sketch without exiting the command. Just click on 'Sketch' in the breadcrumb and the sketch activates for editing.

For more information see To Mark Faces

3D Annotations

You can now reorder 3D annotations in the model browser.

Diameter and Radius Dimensions

When creating or editing 3D annotations, you can change a diameter dimension to a radius dimension or a radius dimension to a diameter dimension. You can select multiple dimensions of the same type and change them in one action.

Ability to change an invalid parameter name

If the name of a parameter is invalid (for example using a space or comma), the warning dialog now contains an Edit button which enables you to correct the name directly. Previously, you could only discard the edits and start again.
