2. For Parting Line, select a parting line feature or edges of the mold.
3. For Mold Parameters, select the parting surface definition.

5. Select Options and click .
   The parting surface appears in the Parting Surface Bodies folder, under the Surfaces Bodies folder in the FeatureManager design tree.
