USE EDGE IN DRAWINGS

    I would like to use the USE EDGE function overtop of either a Shrinkwrap or
    External Copy Geom item on a drawing, and when the component changes
    (length, width, height) the USE EDGE draft entities update right along with
    it. We have tried to get the draft entities to update, but have been
    unsuccessfull. We have contacted Pro/E tech support and have they said this
    cannot be done. Does anyone know of an alternative to this solution?


    Thanks in advance,
    Joe

    If you can turn on Parametric sketching in the Sketch menu, the 'Use edge' draft
    entity may hold its parametric reference and follow the edge when the part
    paramaters change. This is available in Wildfire, don't know about earlier
    versions.
