Hi everyone,
I wanted to better understand the difference between the options Create and exclude shrinkwrap and Exclude and create Shrinkwrap (I attach image 1)
It is indicated in the help but I did not understand it.

Thanks,
Matteo

@DaveMartin has a good explanation of the basics. Watch this video for a demonstration and explanation of how shrinkwrap can be used.

Link to help files regarding the option in question for reference:

To Create a Shrinkwrap Feature (ptc.com)

 

Surface Copying Options
Shrinkwrap then exclude (default)—Analyze the entire assembly to identify external surfaces. Only surfaces that belong to the selected components are included in the resulting Shrinkwrap feature (used with subsets).
Exclude then Shrinkwrap—Base the Shrinkwrap only on the selected components (used with subsets).
