Datum Features in Creo Parametric and Creo Simulate
You can create datum features (datum points, datum curves, datum planes, coordinate systems, datum axes) for your model in Creo Parametric, as well as in Creo Simulate.
If you create datum features in Creo Parametric, the features are visible on your model in both Creo Parametric and Creo Simulate.
If you create datum features in Creo Parametric, you can take advantage of certain Creo Parametric part-building techniques not available in Creo Simulate, such as patterning and mirroring.
If you create datum simulation features in Creo Simulate, they are visible and accessible only in Creo Simulate unless you promote them to Creo Parametric.
