7. Select from the namelist menu the name of the coordinate system that the surface will reference.
If imported geometry uses dimension units different from those of the current model, those units are converted to the units of the current model.
With Technical Surfacing, you can create non-solid surfaces using some of the same techniques you use when you are creating solid geometry, as well as more sophisticated surface modeling methods. With Interface, you can import surfaces from other CAD systems.
