PDT’s ProE guy offers his Tip of the Week in an ongoing series for mechanical engineers.

1. 1
Rename the feature to reduce the time you
spend looking for it when you need it
modified.

determine which feature you’re looking for.

2. 2
A feature named “boss-height” tells the
designer - this feature modifies the height of
the screw bosses on the part.
