Create a datum axis. This axis will not be included as part geometry, but rather will act as a reference within part and / or assembly documents. For example, a datum axis can be used as a reference in the Revolve function.
Note: Axis is an Immediate function, which means that it can be accessed independently or from within another part / assembly function (see the example).

The Feature Guide and interaction for this function depend on the type of axis you are creating:

Normal: Create an axis normal to an existing plane / edge / line at a given point.
