You can create skeleton part and copy all available part features to skeleton part. That way you have all features in skeleton part.

I think you can not convert part to skeleton part.

Thanks,

I think you need to copy all part features to respective skeleton part.

How many features are there in part file?

If it is 10 to 15 features, you need to do this exercise. And in skeleton part we normally keeps as low as possible features.

Mr. Shiva,

I think only Shrinkwrap tool can be helpful in your case. I think there is no any other way to convert your part into skeleton,


Thanks,

create new skeleton by copy:
