Extrude Cut Catalog Feature

Step 5 Create the Extrude Cut Catalog Feature

Once the Extrude Cut is created, highlight the Extrude Cut feature and select from the menu, Feature > Save Catalog Feature. This will create a Catalog Feature similar to when creating from a sketch. Name the Catalog Feature with a descriptive name possibly containing the word Cut to help differentiate it from a profile Sketch Catalog Feature. You will know that the Cut is from an Extrude because as of v9.1 of Alibre, you can not create a Cut Catalog Feature from anything other than an Extrude.

When you use this Extrude Cut, specify the plane on which to insert the Sketch profile from the Catalog Feature, and when APPLYd, the Extrude Cut will hopefully appear as a valid feature.
