Reusable geometry

[bcl001]

Hi everybody, I am trying to define a sketch that can be used as a reusable item. As far as I get, the sketch is then always applied to the same plane from the initial datum-coordinate-system, but I would like this sketch to be attached to any datum-plane I select. The same behaviour when using an item from the 2D-section library.

Thanks in advance, Bert

When defining the UDF (Reusable part), don't include the current sketch datum in the definition. Then the system will prompt you for a new one when you add it to your model.
