Also how do i perform a cut view of a model. I have Intersection points on with the snap mode but it is not snapping to anything. I brought in an igs part model and it will not allow me to pick edges or intersection points.

The interpretation of features may be different across different applications. New to this software coming from espirit.

These models cannot be meaningfully used in the new generation solid modelers, as they cannot be easily edited without Feature Recognition

There exists a large pool of legacy solid models without feature information.

There is no industry standard for feature definition and storage (or, rather, no industry standard has gained widespread support amongst CAD/ CAM/ CAE/ PDM vendors).

The following points highlight the need for this technology in CAD/ CAM/ CAE/ PDM applications:

Feature Recognition is needed for intelligent re-use of CAD data by downstream applications.

In short, Feature Recognition makes smart solids out of dumb solids! This information is then used in downstream applications. The features that are not recognized automatically can be recognized using the interactive feature recognition facilities. It finds applications in modeling, design, finite element analysis, machining, process planning and cost estimation.ДЇeature recognition is the ability to automatically or interactively identify and group topological entities, such as faces in a boundary representation (B-rep) solid model, into functionally significant features such as holes, slots, pockets, fillets, ribs, etc. Feature Recognition extracts features and their parameters from solid models. This is a pioneering, state-of-the-art technology from Geometric with more than 50 man-years of research and development.
