All solids are listed under the Solid category of the part view. Underneath each solid is a sequence of design features that were used to create the solid. The first design feature listed for a solid is the base feature. Base design features define the initial shape of the solid. Base design features have the suffix, base, in their name. Subsequent design features listed under the solid further modify the shape of the solid. The prefix of a design feature name indicates the type of design operation that was used to create it. In the example below, solid11 is made up of three separate design features. The first feature is named stkbase1. As the first feature of the solid, it is the base feature. The prefix, stk, indicates that the stock was used to create the feature. The second design feature is named extcut1. The name indicates that an extrude design operation was used to cut out the pocket shape. The final design feature is named fillet1 and was created using a fillet design operation.
Note that the list of design features is only available for solids that are created in FeatureCAM. If you import a solid, only the resulting solid model is imported. You can access the faces of the solid, but you have no history of how the model was constructed.
