    All destinations present in the document are listed allowing you to select one to be the father without scanning the tree. They can be:

    • ordered geometrical sets
    • 3D shape representations.

    By default, the destination is the father of the current object and the body is created after the current feature.It is possible to select elements of the ordered geometrical set to put these elements inside the body when creating it. Only consecutive elements can be selected. Volumes and bodies cannot be selected. In case of selection of elements, the destination became automatically the father of the selected elements and cannot be changed any more.

  4. In the Features box, select Split.1 and Offset.1.
  5. Click OK to confirm the operation.
    The result is immediate.

    You can create the features you need in the new body inserted into the ordered geometrical set.
