PMI Mode

The PMI workbench is for entering and editing PMI views and annotations. It does not add feature-history creation entries to the + menu.

Use it after modeling is complete to capture dimensions, callouts, notes, exploded views, inspection data, and view-specific manufacturing intent without altering the underlying solid.

Features

  • No feature-history creation entries are exposed in this workbench.

PMI Types
