About the Intersect Feature
With the Intersect, tool you can create a curve at the intersection of a surface with other surfaces, or a surface with a datum plane. You can also create a curve at the intersection of two sketches, or sketched datum curves that become surfaces after they are extruded.
You can use the Intersect feature in the following ways:
Create three-dimensional curves that can be used for other features such as sweep trajectories.
Show if two surfaces are intersecting to avoid possible gaps.
Diagnose unsuccessful cross sections and cuts.
In the Intersect tool, surfaces can only intersect other surfaces or datum planes. Sketches can only intersect other sketches.
