- Enter the document name, the default is Part* if you do not enter, and click 【Create】. The mouse moves to the viewport, is displayed when it is placed on the plane or datum plane
, and is displayed when other positions are displayed
.
Note：
When the mouse pointer is on, click the plane or datum to create a blank document.The front datum of the new part document coincides with the selected surface, and automatically adds a coincidence constraint.
When the mouse pointer is, click to create a new blank part document, the origin of the document overlaps with the origin of the assembly, and has its own fixed constraints.
