The Main Part/Sub-Part, From sketch functions generate a sheet from a 3-D sketch, taking into account the sheet thickness and fitting direction. Depending on the selected function, the sheet is created as a main part or as a sub-part. To create a sub-part, you first need to create a main assembly with a subordinate assembly. If the assembly is then active, the base sheet is subordinated to the assembly once you have selected the function.
As you only specify the sheet thickness with this function, you first need to create a closed polyline as a 3-D sketch.
Proceed as follows:
Click the 
icon to select the standard for the semi-finished product from the Catalogue Editor. The selection of a semi-finished product affects the sheet thickness and the article number. If you double-click the Sheet from solid feature, you can also activate or deactivate the Use-semi-finished product checkbox later if desired.
The fitting direction specifies the direction (+ or – z-axis) in which the sheet thickness is applied.
checkbox if you want the part to be saved as a referenced part (see HiCAD
3-D).Frequently used parts should be saved as referenced parts. The part will then be additionally saved as an individual part at the end of the process, and will not be integrated as a "fixed" part into the drawing. If any modifications are applied to the part, you can update the part in the drawing.
To switch off feature creation during the generation of this base sheet, deactivate the Create feature 
checkbox. This checkbox is active 
by default.
The name of the sheet will be generated automatically. You can overwrite it in the Article number text field, if you have not activated the Use semi-finished product checkbox.
The sheet is will then be created as a base sheet according to the specified value inputs.
