Renaming Sketch and Feature names

by  SBaugh  Posted    (Edited  )
Renaming Sketch and Feature names:

You should really rename each sketch and feature name to certain name that corresponds to what is being done in the part, so you know what each feature is.

Example:
Base Extrude
|
|-Base Plate <--Renamed To

Boss Extrude
|
|-Dowel Hole <--Renamed To

That will give your design, better design intent. Plus if someone else sits down to figure out your part then they will be able to diagnose it easier. Than looking at Fillet11, Extrude3, etc...
