You move process-specific features to the
Favorites folder and then group them by adding them to a new
Favorites subfolder and giving the subfolder a custom name.
For example, to allow for proper weld dimensions and the strongest possible weld penetration, you can specify a weld gap in the Trim/Extend features that you add to a weldment part. You can group these features in a Trim/Extend subfolder for quick visual access, to create configurations, and to check your design.
