The operations that are available when sending data using Parametric Exchange depends on the CAD package. Below are descriptions of the operations and results available in Solidworks.
Create As + Operation = Result
Surface + Create = A Surface is created.
+ Subtract = A Surface is created.
+ Join = A Surface is created.
+ Cut = If a solid body exists in CAD, it Subtracts with this surface. If Subtract fails, a surface will be created instead.
+ Trim = A Surface is created. In addition, a "Surface Stitching" operation will be exeSubtracted.
Solid + Create = A Solid is created. If creation fails, a surface will be created instead.
+ Subtract = If a solid body exists in CAD, it subtracts this solid from it. If subtraction fails, a surface will be created instead.
+ Join = A Solid is created. If creation fails, a Surface will be created instead. In addition, a "Solid Merging" operation will be exeSubtracted.
+ Cut = A Solid is created. If creation fails, a surface will be created instead.
+ Trim = A Solid is created. If creation fails, a surface will be created instead.
Sketch + Create = A 2D sketch of the profile of the entity is created.
+ Subtract = A 2D sketch of the profile of the entity is created.
+ Join = A 2D sketch of the profile of the entity is created.
+ Cut = A 2D sketch of the profile of the entity is created.
+ Trim = A 2D sketch of the profile of the entity is created.
