Creating Features
There are many kinds of features that you can create on a part. There are solid features and surface features, and features specific to applications. Part modeling refers to the creation of solid or surface features and some user-defined features.
Some features add material and some remove material. The most basic way to add material is through a protrusion. The most basic way to remove material is through a cut.

A feature is the smallest building block in a Creo part model. If you build your models with simple features, your parts become more flexible.
