To Adjust Feature Depth
1. In the Machining Feature dialog box (for example, Profile Feature), click next to the Adjust Feature Bottom element.
The system opens the Define/Adjust Feature Bottom dialog box.
2. Use the following options in the Define/Adjust Feature Bottom dialog box:
Offset below walls—Type an offset value below the bottom of the stock (or below the bottom of the feature Hard Walls, for No Stock machining).
Use Datum Plane—Select a datum plane normal to the z-axis of the Program Zero coordinate system.
Offset from Program Zero—Type a value along the z-axis of the Program Zero coordinate system.
None—The feature Floor coincides with the bottom of the stock. This option is not available for No Stock machining.
