Example

Remarks

A feature ID:

  • is unique within the document.
  • is persistent across SOLIDWORKS sessions and never changes, even if you change the name of the feature.
  • can be used to identify a specific feature when multiple features exist in a model.
  • cannot be assigned by users.
  • is not the same as a persistent reference ID. You can get a feature using its persistent reference ID, but you cannot get a feature using this method.
