Hi,
I'm not able to draft a part.
In the example attached without the boss I'm able to draft, but with a boss I'm not able to draft.
Can someone help me to understand if there are some draft otpions to set or something different ?

Thank you...

1) On imported file
2) Usually I put draft and bends at the end of my project

You could always use Synchronous Modeling to first 'Move' the 'Boss' out of the way, then create your sketch add the Draft and then using Synchronous again move the 'Boss' back to where it belongs, as shown in the attached model.
