How do i change a helical CUT to a PROTRUSION?

Best answer by KenFarley

I'm guessing, but is this an old model from a previous version of Creo/ProEngineer? Like, from the days when you had to set a feature as a cut or protrusion and once you did that was what it was?

Many features from the older software are still understood by more modern Creo releases, but if I try to edit them I see different menus. Old rounds are similar in odd behavior.

Depending on how the cut was created it will a be different method. Look at your feature to see if you have the option to remove material when you redefine the feature. Look for this icon to remove material.

Thanks tbraxton,

No, I don't have that option to Remove Material. A different window opens up when I choose Edit Definition.
