What I think you need to do it create a plane that that feature can be created from. Assuming the flat part of the feature is parallel to an existing datum, you can create a datum offset from the appropriate datum the desired distance, and then use it as the sketching plane to create the feature, which can be extruded probably "through next" or "up to surface".
I like to make datums like this "on the fly". That places them within the feature you are creating, and limits their display. To do that, start an extrusion. Then hit the "pause" button in the dashboard thing. Then create a datum as explained above. Then hit the "resume" button, and select the new plane as your sketching plane, and continue as above.
Also, consider making your topic/subject heading more descriptive. Like "extrusion from a cyliner edge" or something. "Wildfire 2.0" could be anything.
Achrisk is right, just make a datum plane offset from a datum plane thats is at center of cylender, make protrusion from that datum plane and make it to selected surface, u can also select upto next option.
Hi Walter. There is no axis pattern in Proe 2001 because this function was added to Wildfire 1.0..And if you dont have axis pattern in wildfire than you can use Copy-Paste function...but be sure that you have inserted the Special paste of copied features and then select rotation around the axis..
By the way there are another way to do an axis pattern(even in PROE 2001)but with Relations for patterned features. You have to create some equations and relations for pattern..Try to search through topics...I think, I heve some short tutorial about this relations ... but at this tiem I am not able to find it...
Is been a while sense the last time i use pro-2001, and a belive that you still can make a rotational pattern. You could do it by inserting a dtm in a angle and referering the feature to it. And using that angular dimension for your pattern. Or trying constraining your feature making you angular dim. for reference.
