Field Point
A field point is a type of datum point intended for use only in conjunction with user-defined analysis (UDA). A field point defines a domain from which it was selected—curve, surface, or quilt. To create a field point, select a point on an entity. The field point does not require dimensions because it belongs to the entire domain.
You use field points with other features to apply a particular measurement to the selected domain.

A field point must be used only as a reference for features that define a User-Defined Analysis. Do not use a field point as a reference for regular modeling.
A field point is displayed at the location on the domain at which it was picked. Field points have names in parts FPNT# and in assemblies AFPNT#. To change the domain of the field point, you must redefine the feature.
