Creation or modification of varied items is possible without the reference part in the current session.
Addition or removal of material geometry.
The use of Relations and Family Tables with corresponding associated parameters.
The ability to control whether notes from the reference model are copied.
The conversion of an inheritance feature to an external Inheritance feature.
Nest Inheritance features.
The monitoring of parent and child relationships between subfeatures of Inheritance and other features of the part that reference them.
