Side features can be created using the Automatic method, or from side surfaces.
Use a boss or pocket for closed features.
If you are recognizing the feature directly from the side surfaces, keep in mind:
- It is often easiest to select the surfaces from the top view after clicking Hide All Nonvertical Surfaces from the Hide menu.
- Chamfers, draft angles and bottom radii cannot be recognized, but you can add these parameters to the feature in the Dimensions page of the New Feature wizard.
