Running Feature Paint
Feature Paint allows you to copy feature parameters from one feature to others that you select. For instance, you can select a boss-extrude from one part and apply its parameters (such as depth) to another boss-extrude on a different part.
You can also select two different features and apply feature parameters. For example, select a sweep feature to apply its parameters (such as the texture and transparency properties) to a dome feature.
Sheet metal features are supported.
Parameters you can copy include:
Limitations:
-
Unsupported sheet metal features: bend, fold, unfold, and welded corner.
-
If the source feature does not have texture but the target feature does, the target feature retains its texture properties.
-
Reference geometry entities cannot be painted from one feature to another. For example, an end condition of Up To Surface that references a surface cannot be painted.
